I knew that title would get your attention! LOL. It's true though. Since drinking and swearing are important issues to some, I know that leading our wonderful church by being on the board could be a disaster. The intensity of my heart is to reach others with the gentleness and comfort of God's sweet love, So I opted to let others enjoy serving on the board while I lived and served in reality.
The best way I heard this philosophy expressed was in a sermon at this same church. The title was: Will I choose LOVE or LAW ? The law worries and frets about details of habit or of culture, and the law really enjoys focusing on consequences. Oh yes, the consequences.
Love focuses on relationship with Christ. The kind of relationship that is a quiet place of security and exchange.
Yes, I choose Love.
