LIVING
IN LOVE
Beth's
personal, ongoing study of First Corinthians 13 spanning twenty-five
years gives her a rich and biblically sound basis for teaching on
the topics listed in the Holy Bible's "Love Chapter":
Love is patient, kind, does not envy, does not boast, is not proud,
is not rude, is not self-seeking, is not easily angered, keeps no
record of wrong, does not delight in evil, rejoices in the truth,
always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres, never fails.
She is well-versed in these topics in regards to (1) God's love
for us, (2) the love God desires from us and works in our hearts,
and (3) the love God wants us live out in our relationships with
others. Not only is this love the foundational subject for all of
her writings, it is the love she seeks to live in Christ Jesus.
You
may discuss your group's topic needs in this area with Beth to come
up with something to promote your vision of God's purposes for your
event.
