“In the same way the Church exists for nothing else but to draw men into Christ, to make them little Christs.  If they are not doing that, all the cathedrals, clergy, missions, sermons, even the Bible itself, are simply a waste of time.  God became man for no other purpose.  It is even doubtful, you know, whether the whole universe was created for any other purpose.  It says in the Bible that the whole universe was made for Christ and that everything is to be gathered together in Him.”

-C.S. Lewis, Mere Christianity Book 4 Chapter 8
 
God did not become man just to offer us forgiveness, but to offer us a whole new identity!  A whole new way of life and purpose.
 
This year, LoveWorks has reached thousands of people from all over the globe. People are being drawn into Christ and His image is being formed clearly in them. This is being done in Cathedrals and homes, in large national gatherings and individual privacy. Wherever the message of LoveWorks is proclaimed, people are inspired and changed because Christ's love is a transforming power.
 
The war against love is not over. Many will pick up their weapons to attack the only source of real freedom we have as men and women. It is the Love of God that we must hold during the fiery trials that still await us. Protect your heart for it is the wellspring of life. Protect it from the very evils that will work diligently to make it cold.  Keep envy, boasting, arrogance, rude actions, self-seeking, easily angered, and a record of wrongs far from your heart. Do not delight in evil. Resist these fleshly desires or they will steal from you the only thing that matters in this life - LOVE.
 
This holiday season, we pray that the love of Christ would shine brightly in your hearts and homes. Celebrate this Christmas not only with presents, food, and family, but with the actual love of Christ - proclaim Him, share Him, reveal Him, live Him! May His love shine powerfully this season and draw many to Himself.
 
LoveWorks
and never fails.
