Love Without a Mask | Cozy Afternoon Walk: Romans (S1), Ep.51

Welcome to Cozy Afternoon Walk — a short pause in your day to sit with Scripture, one verse at a time.Today's passage: Romans 12:9-13"Love must be sincere. Hate what is evil; cling to what is good. Be devoted to one another in love. Honor one another above yourselves. Never be lacking in zeal, but keep your spiritual fervor, serving the Lord. Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, faithful in prayer. Share with the Lord's people who are in need. Practice hospitality." (NIV)An old song calls love a seed of tears — and most of us know exactly why. So much of what gets called love only shows up when someone's watching. Paul opens his list of twelve marks of the Christian life with a love that has no audience at all — the kind that looks the same on stage and off it. Today we trace that single root through everything it grows into, and ask what our own love looks like the moment no one's watching.This episode is part of our season through Romans.
