What is your number one priority in life?
Your answer to that question reveals your dominant life value. Everyone has one whether they realize it or not. It’s what we unconsciously base our decisions on.
Through this six-session video-based Bible study (DVD/streaming video sold separately), 40 Days of Love, pastor Rick Warren—author of bestselling books The Purpose Driven Life and The Daniel Plan—teaches you how to constantly focus on authentically loving God and loving others as your deepest desire and highest aspiration.
God tells us that our dominant life value is to love and be loved. Jesus once said that of all the commands in the Bible, two are most important: Love God with all your heart and love your neighbor as yourself.
In this six-session study, Warren shares practical, Christ-centered advice on how to authentically love God and love your neighbor as a normal way of life. With a focus on the spiritual truths of patience, kindness, truth, and forgiveness, you will learn to make love your dominant life value.
This Study Guide is filled with helpful discussion starters, video overviews, a helpful Leader’s Guide and much more. It's designed to be used with the companion 40 Days of Love DVD (sold separately).
Sessions include:
- Love Matters Most
- Love Is Patient, Love Is Kind
