The Strength to Love

Journey to Love

Love comes easy to some of us. But for a lot of us, being more loving is really hard. It's scary to be more vulnerable. To risk reaching out. But the thing about love is that it is inevitable. If we just keep going, we'll find it. So how do we find the strength to love?

From Series: "Journey to Love"

Our deepest human need is to love and be loved. Despite - or maybe because of - this fact, we are often not good at giving or receiving love. In this series, we'll explore the nature of love and what it means to receive love so that we can learn to love well. Join us as we embark upon this journey to love!

This is the season of the year when people start to think about monsters – ghosts and goblins and things that go bump in the night. We normally don’t think of monsters having anything to do with the Church, but we’d be wrong. The reason people tell monster stories is that monsters are a safe way to talk about things we’re not ready to admit about ourselves. We don’t want to see ourselves as selfish, unforgiving, ill-tempered. So we tell stories. We create monsters.
