God's Unconditional Love

We keep getting stuck trying to love people the way God calls us to, but the secret to loving without getting stuck is simple: when I know love, I will show love. Pastor Bill walks through 1 John 4:7-21 to show that loving others consistently only happens when we are clear about God's love, stay near God's love, and let that love push out the fear that holds us back.

God chases us not with judgment but with goodness, mercy, and love, even when we run from Him. Through the prophet Hosea's marriage to Gomer, we see that God's love is profoundly undeserved, that it ultimately brings hope, and that it is desperately needed — because He pursues us despite us, and paid everything to buy us back.
