​
​BELIEVE
(verb)​

 Word Origin: late 12th Century  
meaning "confidence reposed in a person or thing"

BELIEVE descends from
West Germanic ga-laubon,
meaning "to hold dear, esteem, trust"
and is related to the
Old Saxon gilobo, meaning "dear, esteemed,"
​from the root word leubh –
"to care, desire, or love."

TO BELIEVE...

IS TO LOVE.


We cannot believe in a God we do not love.

We cannot love a God we do not know.

We cannot know a God whom we've never experienced.
​
We cannot experience God on our own.

LEARNING TO BELIEVE
​ HAPPENS IN A COMMUNITY
​WHERE LOVE IS THE RULE.

WHAT WE LOVE...
