Emphasis Preaching Journal

One of the preacher's greatest difficulties is to deal with the word love. Part of the problem arises from the fact that in our language we use the word for everything. We love cars, cats, mothers, ice cream, God, friends, family, and clothes with the same word. Nobody has the slightest idea of what we mean until we put an adjective in front of the word and begin to give that noun -- love -- some content.
