As Jesus followers, we are to be known as people who love others. But, we have to be honest with ourselves; outside of these walls, there is a lot of doubt as to whether Jesus' followers are, in fact, people who love others. Christians are being conformed to the patterns of our world rather than transformed by the sacrificial love of Jesus.
Today we will spend some time reading Paul's thoughts on this (because church people not living into their identities as Christ-followers is nothing new). By meditating on this powerful song, I want to share with you how I am challenged to let go of "Cheap Unity" and embrace an identity that pulls me into unity with each of you in the shape of Jesus and the Cross.
