What I Learned About Love from Jesus and My Dad

One thing that Jesus and the good dads of the world have in common is that they both teach us about real love by example. In this message on Father’s Day, Cody unpacks three truths about the definition of love exemplified by Jesus and a good dad; three truths that are brought to light in 1 John 3:16-18.
