Love And Justice

Thankfulness

Jesus often used meals to engage with people and teach important lessons. And he continues to call us to his table to dine, feasting on who he is and learning more about him through the Word.

So Loved

Did you know the Bible says we must glue ourselves to God? Love joins us to God. Love attaches itself and does not let go.

Here are ten ways we stay connected with God. Let’s do it!

Staying Connected With God

No matter what you’ve been through, it’s still possible to be and to stay in love.

Thrive: Building Stronger Marriages . . . Together

Distractions in Your Marriage - Part 1

The justice displayed in the life of Jesus is one motivated by love. A justice that is restorative and redemptive. A justice that is displayed with a hand outstretched, eyes that see and a heart opened. A justice centred in the cross. A justice so full of love, compassion, mercy and service it is extravagant!

Real Hope: Justice Towards Our Neighbours 

God designed people as physical, emotional, and spiritual beings. In this reading plan, we want to better understand human sexuality from God’s Design, to the Distortions we encounter, and the Redemption we can experience.

Sex: Design. Distortion. Redemption.

The Bible talks about how much God loves us, but does he really love EVERYONE? Surely he only loves the perfect Christians who never make mistakes, but does he truly love me, too? The answer is an abounding YES, and Pastor Van Moody explains it all this plan, based on his book  Desired by God.

Am I Really Desired By God?

The God of Genesis who established every star in its place and caused the earth to spin knows your name. This series highlights three themes from the first days of creation: light, mankind, and rest.

The Pursuit

Jesus believed the greatest commandment was not only to love God but to love others. In Luke 10 he invited the inquiring teacher of the law to love with action.

100 Descriptions of God

God’s relentless love is the life-blood of his mission. This love was most remarkably displayed in the culmination of his grand salvation plan: sending his very own Son to live and minister on earth, finally dying a sinner’s death on the cross, that we might be redeemed by our faith in him and raised with him in his resurrection. Such perfect love demands a response—we love because God first loved us.

We Love Because God First Loved Us

ACT LIKE MEN is a study designed to inscribe the 5 markers of Godly manhood into men, these markers are found in 1st Corinthians 16:13-14.

ACT LIKE MEN 

Have you ever thought about the ways we seek love? We try to impress people with our social media posts, we crave compliments, we look for satisfaction from things that were never intended to satisfy us. What we really want is a love that pursues us—and never lets us down. That’s the kind of love we’re going to explore in this devotional. That’s the kind of love that changes everything.

Love Changes Everything By Micah Berteau

Just as God first breathed the spirit of life into man in Eden, so we rely on Him to sustain us still. We survive by His power, through His word, and for His glory. To believe the Gospel is to live; to live is to obey. This is the freedom for which Jesus set us free.

Jesus came into the world to save sinners. And this is really good news. In this 3-day devotional, John Piper walks through key biblical texts to explain the fascinating love of God.


The Fascinating Love of God: Devotions With John Piper

Jesus’ call for us to love our neighbours as ourselves includes people of other faiths, even if this puts us at risk of danger and shame. The Bible is clear that at times, the love of Christ may call us to suffer, even die for the sake of the gospel. Yet still we realize that our love should reach out to all people, including those scattered around the world.

Living The Love Of Christ Among People Of Other Faiths

These 21 readings illustrate how God listens, communicates and shows us how much He loves and cares for us using passages from throughout the Bible.

How God Expresses His Love for Us

Through scripture and well-known bible stories we’ll explore how "Everything is a Gift" is about having an attitude of gratitude. We pray that children will grasp that God loves a grateful heart and that we have so much that we can be grateful for.

Game Changer (Week 3)

God is so absolutely crazy about His children and wants to show His love in so many ways.  It wasn't until I was a father that I understood that crazy parental kind of love, and it gave me a perspective of how He feels for us. My perspective changed further when I began to raise a little girl, and the tenderness of my heart helped me to understand the tender side of God—a side that would do anything for us because He loves us.

True North: Because He Loves You 

Without question, what our world needs more than anything else is love. If people loved each other, really loved each other, there would be no more war, crime, abuse, injustice, poverty, hunger, homelessness, deprivation, or immorality.

In this 7-day plan, explore the different aspects of love, including how to love others, remaining in Christ's love, God's agape love for us, and why love is greater than faith and hope. 

The Supremacy Of Love

You have been written into a wonderful story. God’s story is one that includes Creation, Fall, Redemption, and Restoration.

We Were Sexual Before We Were Sinful

Vance K. Jackson leads readers in this powerful heart transforming devotional. When you focus more on your enemies, than you do God, you begin to worship and magnify the offense instead of worshipping God. When you focus on your enemy, you begin to confess, repeat and rehearse what they’ve done to you. Worship God and not your enemy. What has your heart entangled? Let God lead your heart.

Love Your Enemies.
