“The Church”

“You don’t have to agree with me today.

You don’t have to like me and what I have to say.

You can go home ANGRY, but I really hope that you can

See that I LOVE YOU, and that’s why I’ve shown you God’s plan.

It’s a CHURCH, a group of BELIEVERS, that honor and glorify JESUS

It’s NOT the PEWS, the PULPIT or the BUILDING, NO FOLKS, it’s YOU, IT’S ME, it’s US.

And so let’s live out each day of our LIFE,

In the way that we NOW KNOW

So that others will look at us and SEE JESUS,

and by that, HIS LOVE to them SHOW.”
