Love Over Logic addresses a critical problem in Christianity: being right in our theology but wrong in our approach. Many people reject the church while accepting Jesus because they've encountered Christians who communicate arrogance instead of humility. Paul's solution in 1 Timothy wasn't just correcting information but reminding believers that 'the aim of our charge is love' flowing from three foundations: a pure heart unmixed with pride, a good conscience that backs up teaching, and a sincere faith beyond religious performance.Correction is sometimes necessary but must come from humility. Before correcting others, we should examine our own motives, approach with gentleness, and remember we're capable of wandering too. Effective teaching produces love that creates community rather than division. In our politically and culturally divided world, the church should offer something different - not shallow tolerance but genuine love that values differences. The transformation happens when our primary goal in every interaction becomes loving others well, remembering that Jesus loved us when we were wrong about everything. The world isn't impressed by our knowledge but will pay attention when they see genuine, self-giving love.

In 'The Treasure That Lasts,' we examine how wealth becomes a counterfeit for what only God can provide. The story of the rich young ruler in Mark 10 illustrates how attachment to possessions can prevent us from experiencing eternal life. Though wealth promises security, identity, control, and happiness, these are ultimately hollow substitutes for what God offers: true security independent of circumstances, identity based on who He created us to be, sovereignty over all things, and eternal joy not tied to temporal possessions. Jesus teaches in Matthew 6 that earthly treasures are temporary and vulnerable to theft, destruction, and devaluation, while heavenly treasures remain eternally secure. Money itself isn't evil—it's neutral—but the love of money leads to various kinds of evil. The challenge isn't necessarily to embrace poverty but to maintain proper perspective about wealth. When we practice generous giving, we demonstrate that money doesn't control us, and we create space for God to entrust us with more resources to bless others. The ultimate question becomes: Are we content in God alone, or do we believe we need wealth to be happy? Our answer determines not just our financial future but our eternal destiny.

In our journey through life, many of us struggle with the balance between serving our careers and serving God. The parable in Luke 14:15-24 illustrates how people missed a great banquet because they prioritized possessions, careers, and relationships over accepting the master's invitation. Similarly, when we make our careers our primary identity rather than seeing them as gifts from God, we create counterfeits that promise fulfillment but can never truly deliver.Statistics show that 94% of our workforce works over 50 hours weekly, and nearly half of Americans consider themselves workaholics. Our occupations have become more than just jobs—they've become our identities. However, Colossians 3:23-24 reminds us that our work should be a form of worship, done heartily for the Lord rather than for human recognition. When God is our master, work serves His purpose rather than ruling our lives. The difference between a workaholic and a Jesus servant is clear: workaholics identify themselves by job titles and base their worth on professional success, while Jesus servants identify as God's beloved children and see excellence in work as worship to God. By evaluating our relationship with work, establishing boundaries, and examining our choices, we can ensure we're working to live for God rather than living to work.
