This week, we finish chapter 4 of 1 John. Here, we see a command that has been one of the central themes to this book... love one another. But John doesn't just give the command, he also shows us that God is the source of all love and that he demonstrated an incredible and unnatural love by sending Jesus. John also shows that one of the best ways to know if we've experienced this love is that we are able to show the same unnatural love to others.

The Greatest Danger
June 2, 2019 • Brian Watts
We finish our seventeen-week study in 1 John by looking at the final verse, John's last message to his readers. Here, he warned against one of the greatest dangers facing us... idolatry. We spend time looking at what it is, how to identify our idols, and how to guard ourselves against them.
The Value of Knowing
May 26, 2019 • Kevin Blake
As we continue in chapter 5 of 1 John, we look closely at a word that is repeated 7 times within 10 sentences... "know". Clearly John wants his readers to have confidence in what they know but why do we need to know and what effect should this knowledge have? We explore these questions this week.
The Testimony
May 19, 2019 • Brian Watts
We move into the middle of chapter 5 this week and another of John's closing words to the early church in this letter. Here, John gives a clear testimony that speaks to who Jesus was and what He came to do. We see that not only is Jesus who He claimed to be, but also that all of those who believe in Him get all the rights and benefits that He has in eternity.
