Love and Correction

Love and judgement. These two words seem to be polar opposites. And yet, careful insight and thinking demonstrate that these concepts are intimately linked. When we think of nearly anyone or anything we care about, correction is necessary for success. If you are a business owner or manager, you need to correct your employees for their own good. If you are in a relationship, sometimes you need to correct a lover to strengthen the relationship. If you are a parent, you must correct your children. The same is true with God. This week, as we study Hosea 11-13, we are going to see the love, correction and judgement of God and how they work together to transform people. We will also see what happens when we ignore the correction of God. Join us this Sunday at 10AM and bring a friend!
