How to Have a Healthy Church

summary

In 1 Corinthians 13, Paul teaches that love is greater than every spiritual gift and the necessary foundation for all Christian life and ministry. Without love, even the most impressive acts of service are empty. Love is patient, humble, and self-giving, ultimately reflected in Christ Himself. Gifts are temporary and partial, but love endures forever, shaping the church now and into eternity.
