As we prepare for the year to come, we take a look at one last word to live by. Love is a cardinal Christian value. Love is to be a defining characteristic. For followers of Christ, being known as a loving person is not meant to be aspirational, “something we’ll grow into someday.” It is meant to be the primary means by which another would know that we are followers of Christ (John 13:35).

I’m breaking this talk up into two parts because there is simply too much to cover in a single week. Next week we will look at Christ’s command to love in John 13, but this week, we start with the foundation, what is love? What sort of love are we actually describing when we say we are to be loving? To do this, we’ll do a deep dive on the way Jesus speaks of love in the book of Matthew, and how Paul refers to it in his first letter to the Corinthians. Join us as we launch into the new year with a refined and definite vision for Christian love.
