Authentic Love: Relationships in 1 John

John teaches that one mark of authentic community is a practical and particular love for people. In this audio talk, Mike Emlet explores how real love for God is expressed horizontally by tangible, “hands-on” love within a community of believers. Emlet argues that love is a vital, active motion of our God toward his people that we are intended to imitate toward others. He examines three questions related to love and ends with a discussion of love as a community venture.
