    <description>Let's face it...life sometimes is hard and can just suck. When we are faced with life's challenges we can be discouraged, get tired, and become weary. What we need is motivation, encouragement, and a helping hand that keeps us going. That's the idea of GRINDIT! We find our strength to endure when we focus on Jesus. God's own Son wasn't exempt from life's challenges and He didn't do anything to deserve what he went through! And yet He did...willingly, therefore we find our hope in Him.</description>

  <itunes:subtitle>Love or unity? What is the reason Paul writes 1 Corinthians 13? </itunes:subtitle>

  <description>&lt;p&gt;When people hear 1 Corinthians 13, their mind immediately goes to “love” but is that what Paul is talking about in this chapter? Yes, he mentions it many times and explains what love is, but why is Paul explaining love to the church at Corinth? It is because they are divided, they are enjoying sin instead of fleeing from it, and they are boasting about their spiritual gifts given to them by the Holy Spirit. Did you know the words he uses to describe love are not adjectives? They are verbs meaning love is an action! Love is something we do on a consistent basis because Paul is going to say, “Love never stops!” Are you loving? You may be surprised to find out you aren’t loving at all! &lt;/p&gt;

  <description>&lt;p&gt;At the end of Romans 12, Paul discusses the hard truth that we are to love our enemies and we are to bless them. This idea is not original with Paul because Jesus told his disciples to do the very same thing in Matthew 5:43-44. This is a great discussion in today's podcast that you will not only enjoy, but be challenged by as well! &lt;/p&gt;
