On June 15, 2014, Pastor Kim May delivered a heartfelt sermon on Father’s Day titled "A Father's Love," based on 1 John 3:1-2. Reflecting on God's nature, he explored the themes of unconditional, unimaginable, and unending love, citing examples from the Bible and personal stories. President Calvin Coolidge's declaration of Father’s Day reminds us to honor the love of fathers. The message emphasizes that despite imperfections, a father's love is vital, akin to God's unwavering love for humanity. May we appreciate and embrace this profound connection.
