Love One Another

Hope expressed in authentic Christian love is absolutely stunning. Paul wants us to understand that those of us loved by God are people who endure and encourage, and that produces hope.

Promoting Peace

Paul is making it clear, loving other believers is the overwhelming value and expression that flows from our experience of being loved by God. In today’s text, Paul shows us precisely how God’s love is lived out through us.

Don't Sweat the Small Stuff

Paul insists that we welcome and warmly embrace brothers and sisters whose expressions of faith might be radically different from our own. In doing so, we maintain unity in the body of Christ and glorify God through our relationships with each other.

Easter

Easter is the Good News of a GREAT REDEMPTION. Easter means second chances are available and there is no better example of this than the way that Jesus pursues Peter, which is good news for us too!

Palm Sunday

Jesus expectantly comes not to fulfill our expectations, but to meet our deepest needs. He may not be the king we expected but he’s the king we need.

The Sun Has Risen

The son has risen, we are in the light. Paul wants to make sure that we live like it. He is concerned that we might be needlessly and foolishly stumbling around in the darkness, unaware that we are still in the darkness when we can and should be enjoying all the advantages that inevitably accompany living in the light.

Owe Only Love

Love is the unmistakable, inevitable expression of those who treasure Jesus; those who have experienced the life-giving, life-transforming power of the love of God.

God, Government, and Taxes

Flowing directly from Paul’s direction to make sure our LOVE is genuine in our relationships with one another, even extending to our enemies, he now tells us to submit to civil authorities.

Overcoming Evil with Love
Evil is overcome by the goodness of God.

God's Best, Our Best, Others' Best
Paul in Romans unpacks how and why we relate to different people in a variety of ways for the purposes of
1. Church unity and
2. Living as examples of the love of God to the yet-to-believe world.
