The Letters of 1, 2 & 3 John were written to encourage followers of Jesus to remain faithful to the truth.

This book “What Love Is” by Kelly Minter not only reveals the heart of John but also the heart of Jesus. This Optional book is a study that includes recipes and a more relational approach.

This 7-session study book is available through Amazon or Lifeway.com.
