June 16 is Graduate Sunday. Sermon ~ Genuine Love ~ Romans 12:9-21
” Love must be sincere. Hate what is evil; cling to what is good. Be devoted to one another in love. Honor one another above yourselves. Never be lacking in zeal, but keep your spiritual fervor, serving the Lord. Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, faithful in prayer. Share with the Lord’s people who are in need. Practice hospitality.” (Romans 12:9-13)
From the Sermon Series: Genuine Love:
Pastor Kenny’s sermon from the Traditional Service
Rev. Kevin Haven’s sermon from the Common Ground Service.
Living and Sacrifice don’t go together. However, that is exactly what it takes to live the Good News of Jesus in our lives. Let’s learn how we can die to live and what we can do when we are yielded to Christ.
The Scripture was Romans 12:1-2
