The command to love cannot be separated from the one who commands and embodies it. Jesus does not come to us as a preacher of love, but as one by whom we might know the righteousness of God’s kingdom. He comes to establish the condition that makes love for one another possible. - Stanley Hauerwas

“So we see that the Gospel is made up of two parts—Christ’s teaching and his actions. People who only know the historical events do not know the Gospel, for it is the teaching that reveals what Christ achieved by his actions. These two form a holy knot no one must undo. (1/2)

Going through some of my belongings and I found this, the first CD I ever owned. I received it, along with my first CD player, on Christmas in 1992.

I was born in 1983 and my wife was born in 1989. I usually don’t think about the age difference, but then when I find out things like she’s never heard of Run-D.M.C., I’m reminded.
