Today's Passage
Psalm 23:1-6 - The Lord is my shepherd, I lack nothing. He makes me lie down in green pastures, he leads me beside quiet waters, he refreshes my soul. He guides me along the right paths for his name’s sake. Even though I walk through the darkest valley, I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff, they comfort me. You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies. You anoint my head with oil; my cup overflows. Surely your goodness and love will follow me all the days of my life, and I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever.

In this episode, Jake Williams begins a series on the Fruit of the Spirit looking at the first fruit of Love. Today he talks about why our relationships are filled with brokenness and how Biblical love is what we need to heal them.

Today's Passage
Ephesians 5:21-28 - Submit to one another out of reverence for Christ. Wives, submit yourselves to your own husbands as you do to the Lord. For the husband is the head of the wife as Christ is the head of the church, his body, of which he is the Savior. Now as the church submits to Christ, so also wives should submit to their husbands in everything. Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her to make her holy, cleansing her by the washing with water through the word, and to present her to himself as a radiant church, without stain or wrinkle or any other blemish, but holy and blameless. In this same way, husbands ought to love their wives as their own bodies. He who loves his wife loves himself.

In this episode, Jake Williams begins a series on the Fruit of the Spirit looking at the first fruit of Love. Today he talks about the source of our love which is from the One who first loved us.

Today's Passage
1 John 4:19-21 - We love because he first loved us. Whoever claims to love God yet hates a brother or sister is a liar. For whoever does not love their brother and sister, whom they have seen, cannot love God, whom they have not seen. And he has given us this command: Anyone who loves God must also love their brother and sister.

In this episode, Jake Williams begins a series on the Fruit of the Spirit looking at the first fruit of Love. Today he talks about the classic passage on love in 1 Corinthians 13 and how this passage isn't just for weddings and marriage.

Today's Passage
1 Corinthians 13:4-7 - Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.
