In this message, Seth Phipps explores the biblical meaning of love, contrasting cultural perceptions with scriptural truth. Using1 Corinthians 13, he emphasizes that love is not merely an emotion but a commitment rooted in patience, kindness, humility, and truth. He challenges common cultural narratives that define love as conditional, self-centered, or fleeting, asserting that true love—agape love—is sacrificial and unlimited, mirroring God’s love for humanity. Phipps also discusses the importance of waiting well in relationships, advocating for spiritual maturity before pursuing romantic love. The message concludes with an invitation for listeners to experience God’s love fully, as knowing and receiving divine love is essential to truly loving others.
