Some of you know that I love music. I play a little piano; and during my schooling years my teacher, Mrs. Davenport, would routinely make me practice with a metronome. It keeps the beat, sets the standard, and that’s exactly what Jesus does for us as His Church. This Sunday we’ll wrap up our series on faith, hope and love by discussing the “greatest of these” and how we ourselves can attain to that metronome of love.
Have you ever been around people who live from their future? They aren’t clinging to their glory days as a high school athlete, or to the good ole days when life seemed simpler and safer, or to a carpe diem "seize the day" approach to life. People who live with their future in mind don’t live from their past or from their present; they instead focus on a hope that awaits them in heaven.
Some of you are aware that I don’t know how to cook. It’s true. But I’m familiar enough with the process to understand that “boiling something down to its essence” is a cooking metaphor. So, if you were to take the Bible – and the Christian life as a whole – and boil it down to its essence, three things would remain: faith, hope & love. That’s what Gene Getz calls “the divine trilogy”, and that’s what we’ll be discussing together over the next few weeks.
