Song of Solomon

Mar 10, 2025    Pastor Steve Finley

In this exploration of the Song of Solomon, we uncover profound truths about love, value, and spiritual relationships. This poetic book, often misunderstood, reveals itself as a beautiful narrative of courtship, marriage, and reconciliation. At its core, we find a powerful message about how God sees us - not through worldly standards, but through the lens of love and servanthood. Just as Solomon valued the Shulamite woman despite her perceived lowliness, we're reminded that our worth in God's eyes isn't determined by our status or appearance. This parallels Jesus' teachings about true greatness in His kingdom, challenging us to embrace humility and service. As we delve into the story's symbolism, we're invited to reflect on our own relationships - both with others and with God. How do we express value and support? How do we navigate conflicts and reconciliation? The Song of Solomon encourages us to cultivate love that goes beyond superficial attraction, rooted in mutual respect and understanding of each other's purpose.
