Serving - How to Deepen Your Love, Part 1

In this program, Chip shares four biblical principles that set the tone and establish the foundation for the rest of these programs. He starts with a very concrete look at what love is - and what love is not.

How do you keep love alive?

Ephesians 5:25-33Very rarely, do we take how Jesus loves the Church and use that as our model for how we are to love one another in marriage.Your marriage is not just about your PERSONAL fulfillment. -John 13:1-17, 33-35Other than the Church of Jesus Christ, your relationship with your mate is the single most powerful testimony of the reality of God.

Principles:

Love is not a FEELING.Love is SERVING. -Philippians 2:3-4Love must be RECEIVED.Love is UNCONDITIONAL.

Practical Implications:

Love is a CHOICE.Love MEETS the NEEDS of the one loved.Love requires extreme HUMILITY and SECURITY.
