We live in a very individualistic culture, where love is defined by autonomy and tolerance of every opinion and lifestyle. Yet Christ calls us to a counter-cultural love - one that honours and esteems those in leadership and empowers us through the Spirit to be accountable to each other and live at peace with each other. So in light of the imminent return of Jesus, let's make every effort to live out our faith by demonstrating God's selfless love to those around us.
