Bible Text: 1 John 4:7-21, John 15:1-8 |

"All you need is love," the Beatles sang, back in the day, but that wasn't original to them. Jesus told his disciples pretty much the same thing a bit further back in time, and the Apostle John wrote it again in the first epistle bearing his name. Love is the essential element necessary for happy, healthy humans, and everyone knows it. Why then is it so difficult for us to consistently act in loving ways? It's the great human paradox. Back in the 1980's the band Foreigner sang, "I want to know what love is." Today's scriptures provide the answer. So choose your earworm, and join us for worship as we explore bearing the fruit of love.
