The Fruit of Love

Jun 22, 2025    Pastor Rick Wright

Spiritual gifts are powerful—but without love, they’re empty. Paul reminds us in 1 Corinthians 13 that love gives meaning to our actions and depth to our witness. Love sacrifices, it defers, and it dies to self. It’s not about impressing with gifts, but expressing Christ through grace. Love is the fruit that makes the gifts fruitful. While gifts may fade, love remains—timeless, eternal, and essential. As we grow in the Spirit, we grow in love, becoming more like Christ and preparing for the glory to come. Let’s pursue gifts, yes—but above all, let’s live love.
