Relationships 101: What is Love? 1 John 4

Many think there is NO Hope for your relationships!
What you have not seen or experienced, you will not duplicate
You cannot give what you do not have!
Ephesians 5:33
We must receive love before we can truly give love!
1 John 4:7-19
Agape= unconditional or sacrificial
