We believe the most effective change agent the world has ever seen is LOVE.  It breaks down barriers, forgives others, calms nerves, turns away wrath and can even heal those who've experienced tragedies.  Jesus' central teaching was to 'love others as much as you would love yourself' (Matthew 22:39).  That however, came after what is called the greatest command where Jesus said it was important to 'Love the Lord your God with all your heart with all your soul and with all your mind" (Matthew 22:37).  Not only do we believe in the power of love, we try our best and practice it as a church.
