2018 Family Conference Series
“Herein is love”
Overview
A Call to Love
God calls us to be beacons of Christ’s love to a lost and dying world. As Christ’s love is visible in our lives, it is the evidence of truly being His disciple. Where do we find that love? I John 4:10 says, “Herein is love, not that we loved God, but that he loved us, and sent his Son to be the propitiation for our sins.” Discover the love Christ has for you so you can share His love with a watching world.
