Persecuted

Today, we will be continuing last week’s message about the persecution that we can expect as followers of Christ.

This is Love

Today, we will be continuing last week’s study in John chapter 15 to look at two more ways that we can emulate the love of Christ. Last week we learned how Jesus is our ultimate example of love as He washed His disciples' feet. We marveled at the humility that He showed because the disciples should have been washing His feet, but when nobody got up to wash feet before the last supper, Jesus took the opportunity to give His disciples an example to follow. Please open your Bibles to John chapter 15 as we begin today’s lesson.
