Writer and public theologian (and upcoming Lenten Preacher) Brian McLaren encourages congregations to imagine that they are schools for love. He describes churches as “each a locally and globally engaged school of love, teaching future generations to discover, practice, and live in love: love for our neighbor, love for ourselves, love for all creatures and all creation—all comprising love for God, who is all in all in all.”
Through classes, small groups, and regular worship at Calvary, we can learn to be lovers of this world, each other, and God. In outreach, in song, and in fellowship, we can fall more deeply in love with life.
There are worthwhile classes for children and youth and ways for households of all shapes and sizes to explore love and faithfulness at this moment in history. If you’re ready to talk about things that matter and to fall back in love with the world around you, be here when the bell rings—the school for love at Calvary is in session.
