Summary

Do you wish you could just put the brakes on the speed of life? Between work, family, ministry, financial pressures, health issues, is it any wonder that our lives and our relationships are on the ragged edge? If you’re ready to start loving more by doing less, then join Chip as he begins his series called "Spiritual Simplicity"

4 words drive our lives, our schedules, our relationships, and our souls...

Bigger - Better - Faster - More

Is it really possible to break free of our high speed, high pressure, high demand, guilt producing dis-ease of our complex lives?

What do you want to be known for?
If you could only be known for one thing, what would it be?

1 overarching principle:

Anything minus LOVE = Nothing

Everything minus LOVE = Nothing

1 Corinthians 13:1-3

Summarizing love’s supremacy

Performing in your world with the greatest gifts and abilities…without love MEANS nothing!

Possessing the best, the finest, the most amazing things you can imagine …without love you BECOME nothing!

Sacrificially providing for those you love, the greatest cause on earth…without love PROFITS you nothing!

A prescription for transformation

Rx1 – Focus

Rx2 – Love more!

Rx3 – Redefine success

If love is the answer, what is love?

What it’s not & What it is (described in 1 Corinthians 13:4)
