Do you want better relationships? Do you consider yourself to be a loving person? It may sound simple, but loving others well is layered and comes with many challenges. It’s more than emotion or affection. It’s more than having things in common. Join Jada Edwards as she shows you how love is a divine choice to act in a favorable way toward another and how it’s more than making friends, acts of kindness, romance or marital love. It’s about redefining love from God’s perspective and discovering its divine power.
