There is much excitement and energy associated with starting a new church. Dreams and visions of what could be, a clean slate to start rewriting history, opportunities everywhere… Without love though, it is not much more than a clanging gong or crashing cymbal. Imagine if your fledgling faith community were to become such a bright reflector of God’s love that it served as an illuminating, warming, healing and attractive “city on the hill that could not be hidden” (Matthew 5:14). Maybe you better get the School of Love up and going before all the new students arrive!
