How does the world think about love? Cupid comes to mind. As popular culture states, he shoots people with his arrows and they fall in love. Society has also made it “normal” for people to fall out of love because supposedly love is an emotion over which we have no control. It’s as though people are walking along, they trip, and the next thing they know, they’ve developed feelings for someone.
The biggest problem with this incorrect understanding is that it completely contradicts the way Scripture presents love (agape). It’s not a feeling or emotion. Agape is a choice, an act of the will. We choose whether we do or don’t love. God can command us to show this kind of love because we do, in fact, have control over it.

He is risen!
In Luke 24:1-6, the empty tomb and the resurrection of Jesus declare Christ’s victory over sin and death. Don’t seek life among the dead. Life is found only in the risen Lord Jesus.

What does it mean to have wisdom according to Scripture?
In this sermon and companion blog post, I look at what Proverbs teaches about wisdom and foolishness. Biblical wisdom is more than knowledge or life experience. It begins with fearing the Lord and is revealed in the way we live.
This message is for anyone who wants to make decisions with discernment, resist foolishness, and grow in godliness.
