Love Never Ends - Rev. Ben Alexander (First on Chatham)

First Cary UMC's First on Chatham Sermon "Love Never Ends” –  Rev. Ben Alexander – May 25, 2025

“Love is patient; love is kind; love is not envious or boastful or arrogant or rude. It does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable; it keeps no record of wrongs; it does not rejoice in wrongdoing but rejoices in the truth. It bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.”  1 Corinthians 13:4-7

There is so much within this world that does not last. From prophecies, words, and knowledge, it will all come to an end. However, Paul reminds us in a letter to the Corinthians that faith, hope, and love will always remain, and the greatest of these is love. Even when we find that we feel distant from God’s presence, the love of God remains close to our lives. For regardless of the things that we encounter within the wilderness of this world, love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, and endures all things.
