Do you find yourself wondering why relationships struggle despite our best intentions? Revd. Mark Fletcher addresses this paradox in his exploration of 1 Corinthians 13, where Paul presents love not as a fleeting emotion but as the very essence of God himself. Using the beautiful metaphor of sunlight refracting through raindrops to create a rainbow, Fletcher shows how love becomes the source of all spiritual fruit: joy, peace, patience, kindness, and self-control.

This thought-provoking sermon challenges our culture's fixation on romantic love, pointing instead to the practical, covenantal love of Scripture - patient, kind, keeping no record of wrongs. Drawing from Jesus's transformative encounters and real-life application, Fletcher reveals how to create environments where love can flourish through genuine connection and rooting ourselves in God. Most powerfully, he reminds us that love never fails because it carries eternity within it - perhaps the only thing we can take with us beyond this life.
