More Reading Suggestions During My Sabbatical

LOVE AS THE WEAPON OF CHOICE – We know from practical experience that love is easy when the two parties are in synch; to love the person who loves you is a comfortable and warm place to be. Let’s move away from the romance novel into real life. Life is full of unlovable people. How do we live a life of peace?

LOVE – My life is not a story of condemnation, but a story of love. The very essence of my relationship with Christ is not my sin, but His love. It defines everything.

NEW YEARS – GOD SAID “IT WAS GOOD” – God does not waste time making second rate things or moments without meaning. God did not create a person or moment on this earth that He did not say, “it is very good…”.

1 Corinthians 13:13, “And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love.”
