And if I were to be so generous as to give away everything I owned to feed the poor, and to offer my body to be burned as a martyr, without the pure motive of love, I would gain nothing of value. Love is large and incredibly patient. Love is gentle and consistently kind to all. It refuses to be jealous when blessing comes to someone else. Love does not brag about one’s achievements nor inflate its own importance. Love does not traffic in shame and disrespect, nor selfishly seek its own honor. Love is not easily irritated or quick to take offense. Love joyfully celebrates honesty and finds no delight in what is wrong. Love is a safe place of shelter, for it never stops believing the best for others. Love never takes failure as defeat, for it never gives up.

Love is a decision and a requirement of discipleship. Before the foundation of the World, God loved. God concluded that love will last forever, a gift accessible to all. Love is unusual; greater than our talents, possessing the capacity to forgive, influence culture, be disciplined and committed. Love is not a feeling or a hashtag. Instead, love is power and love is influential. This three-day plan is all about love.
