"Love That Lasts"

Message by Pastor Jeff Tucker

Most people desire lasting love, but many doubt it can endure. Feelings fade. Circumstances change. Disappointment sets in. Scripture offers a different vision of love, one shaped by patience, humility, endurance, and grace. This week explores how love that lasts is not sustained by emotion or compatibility, but formed over time as God works in us. Marriage becomes one of the primary places where our selfishness is exposed and Christ teaches us how to love as we have been loved.

Scripture: 1 Corinthians 13:4-7
Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.
