    Just as knowing Christ holds the most important place in becoming a Christian, we must also have heard ourselves about the love and joy of Christ.

    This is a huge concept for us: loyalty. It is huge because loyalty in my opinion is narrowly practiced on our society. It is present but usually limited to loyalty to oneself.
