The Fall Quarter (September–November 2020) reminds us that we are commanded by God to love one another as God loves us. The first unit “Struggles with Love,” looking at familial love, jealousy, and destruction. Love and reconciliation in the Joseph story prevail in spite of harsh and negative circumstances. Unit II centers on love for the stranger, the poor, and enemies. Jesus’ parable of the good Samaritan and First Corinthians’ sermon on love illustrate love for one’s neighbor and depicts the height of human love coming from divine love. The third unit explores how believers love by serving, looks at the abiding love of God through the Holy Spirit, reveals the expression of God’s love in the formation of the early Christian community, and tells of the love of neighbor as fulfillment of the law of God.
