The Way of Love ... The Presiding Bishop Michael Curry
In the first century Jesus of Nazareth inspired a movement. A community of people whose lives were centered on Jesus Christ and committed to living the way of God's unconditional, unselfish, sacrificial, and redemptive love. Before they were called "church" or "Christian," this Jesus Movement was simply called "the way."
"Being a Christian is not essentially about joining a church or being a nice person, but about following in the footsteps of Jesus, taking his teachings seriously, letting his Spirit take the lead in our lives, and in so doing helping to change the world from our nightmare into God’s dream."
The Way of Love ... Reverend Marilyn Roth
As a Christian I believe we were innocent before we were found to be born into sin. I believe the presence of God resides in all people. I believe our most holy acts are ones that involve loving God and our neighbor; the neighbor who does not have shelter, the neighbor who is hiding from ICE, the neighbor who lives beside you.
