Soul - Love is why we are here.
So, you can have the first three elements of music (harmony, melody, and rhythm), but still have a pretty lousy song. Soul, or passion, is really what makes the best music come alive and have real meaning for us. For us, love is the same way. Sure, we could have a church full of people who like to be around each other, but if love isn't present in everything we do, we're just wasting our time.
Our love for each other and those who are still in their search for God should overflow in everything we do. If we are known for anything as a church, I want to be known for our love. Really cool music, great preaching, fun activities, all of that is secondary to the fact that we should be out in our community making a difference.

This one is my favorite. I am excited about this because I pray that our group can prove people wrong. People that think that church people are judgmental, hypocritical and self serving, I want to prove them wrong. The only way to do that is by serving them and when you serve, you truly learn how to love.
ReplyDeleteI like SOUL a lot!
