Introduction
Love God. Love People. Live it out.
Love is a Verb is a Christ-centered movement that exists to build strong families and transform communities by helping individuals and marriages live out love through intentional action grounded in faith and community. Rooted in 1 John 3:18, we guide people to love God first so they can love themselves well and from that fullness love others with purpose, compassion, and integrity. Through gatherings, teachings, experiences, and moments of connection, we equip people to walk in wholeness, cultivate authentic community, strengthen their relationships, and leave a legacy of love that impacts generations.
Testimonials
“An unexpected gift to our marriage. We learned from couples in every season, laughed together, and enjoyed a beautiful night out with great food and great company. Every detail created an atmosphere to connect, make new friends and grow our marriage.”
“First of all...if you are married and have been married a long time and/or with kids, we know just how hard it can be to incorporate a time just for the 2 of you! THIS date night, was MORE than just a time to get extra cute and take some pictures. It really was a time of joy in vulnerability that ignites or continually burns the passion you have for one another. You don’t want to miss out!! ”
“An unforgettable experience where a group of people with diverse backgrounds, beliefs, and ages came together to learn, share, and be enlightened about the most powerful force in the world - love. This elegant occasion was filled with excitement from start to ending. The food was scrumptious, the comedian was hilarious, the games were captivating, and the shared experiences about love were inspiring. No matter how long you have been in your love relationship, you will greatly benefit from the Love is a Verb Date Night event.”
what matters to us
when love becomes a lifestyle…
-
Real love starts with Him. When we root our identity in God, we learn to love from a place of wholeness, truth, and spiritual strength. Loving Him first shapes how we see ourselves and how we love others in every season of life.
-
Love is lived, not just spoken. It becomes real through intentional choices, compassion, forgiveness, service, and daily commitment. When love becomes action, it reflects Christ in practical and transformative ways.
-
Love heals, restores, and strengthens from the inside out. When we embrace God’s love, we grow emotionally, spiritually, and relationally into healthier versions of ourselves. Wholeness prepares us for healthy community, healthy relationships, and healthy legacy.
-
Love shapes how we show up in every relationship whether single, married, parenting, or walking out purpose individually. Healthy relationships create healthier communities. When people thrive in connection, the community around them flourishes.
-
We were created for godly connection. Authentic Christ-centered community helps us heal, grow, and walk out love in meaningful ways. When we do life together, love becomes something we practice, share, and multiply.
-
What we cultivate today echoes into tomorrow. Intentional love shapes the next generation and creates impact that outlives us. Legacy grows when love is practiced consistently, purposefully, and with eternity in mind.
