Sermon Summary:In our "Rooted" series this Mother's Day, we explored what it means to be rooted in love through 1 Corinthians 13. We acknowledged both the celebration of motherhood and the pain this day can bring for many, recognizing that being rooted in love offers strength even in difficult seasons.We examined how the Corinthian church valued impressive spiritual gifts, knowledge, and eloquence – much like our culture today – but Paul challenged this value system, declaring that without love, these accomplishments amount to nothing. Paul's definition of love in 1 Corinthians 13:4-8 culminates with "love never ends" – a truth that resonates with our deepest intuitions about meaning and purpose.We reflected on Ephesians 3:17-19, where Paul prays for believers to be "rooted and grounded in love" and to know "the love of Christ that surpasses knowledge." This reveals two different ways of knowing – intellectual understanding versus experiential relationship.The sermon highlighted how love alone endures eternally. While our beliefs, gifts, and achievements will pass away, only what is done in love lasts forever. When our actions are motivated by love, they create eternal ripples that extend beyond our lives.We considered how church exists to create bigger ripples of love together than we could individually. When we gather as the body of Christ, we participate in something that doesn't end.Finally, we explored how God's love is always present in the now – not holding our past against us or withholding love because of our future. Like Jesus weeping with Mary and Martha before raising Lazarus, God's love meets us in our present moment while knowing our entire story.This Mother's Day, we're reminded that whatever our experience – whether celebrating or grieving – love always has the final word.URF WEBSITE: ➤ http://www.urfellowship.comSOCIALS: ➤ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/urfellowship/➤ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/urfellowship
