Christ's greatest commandment wasn't "convert your neighbor." It was "love your neighbor." If loves becomes conditional, if love is reduced to an evangelical tool, if love becomes just another way of making people be just like us, then we've deeply misunderstood the love of Jesus.

Amen

the Rev. Benjamin Cremer

Inclusion isn't just inviting someone to sit at your tabe. It's believing that they belong there.

Amen
