Series: Spicing Up Your Love Life: Loving Like Jesus
February 2. It Starts With Loving Ourselves ~ John 4.
Jesus had no trouble loving himself as he is perfect love. For most of us we’re more like the Woman at the Well. Let’s see how Jesus helped her learn to love herself and do the same.

February 9. What kind of love ~ 1 Corinthians 13.
It’s easy to say I love you if or I love you when but that’s not Jesus love. His is unconditional. Let’s look at what that really means this Sunday.
February 16. Loving the unloveable. ~ Matthew 8:1-4
Jesus said “Love your enemies.” That means I have to learn to love the unloveable. It’s impossible! Or is it?
February 23. Loving the loveable ~ John 12:1-8
Sometimes it’s easy to love those around. To what extent do we really have to love another. Surely there are limits. Or are there?
