In this episode of The Well Podcast, Pastor Phil and host Les Norman talk about the redeeming love of Christ pictured in the Song of Solomon.

Song of Solomon tells the story of a man and woman and a love that lasted a lifetime. 1 Kings 4 tells us that Solomon composed more than a thousand songs during his lifetime, but he believed this one was the song of all time.

Why was Solomon considered an authority on marriage? Although he was a wise and godly king, he had 700 wives and 300 concubines (1 Kings 11:3). Despite this, God used Solomon to write a story of His redeeming love for us in the Song of Solomon.

Like Solomon’s Shulamite bride, we’ve lost our spiritual purity because of sin. But the good news of the gospel is that our worst failure does not define us. Jesus’ redeeming love saved us from our shame and pain and looked beyond our sins. He sees something beautiful and desirable, just like Solomon saw in the Shulamite.

Song of Solomon gives us timeless wisdom for pursuing relationships in singleness, dating, and marriage.

Singles:

Pursue contentment in your season, even while wanting to get married.

Focus on being a good friend to the people in your life.

Embrace the truth that in Christ, you are as complete as you will ever be!

Married people:

Walk in God’s love.

Offer forgiveness.

Prioritize your relationship with the Lord first.

Your relationships can only be as healthy as your relationship with the Lord! We cannot love another person perfectly. You must walk in God’s redeeming love to have any chance at loving others or receiving love.
