RE-BUILDING CHARACTER

  HH, Patriarch Godfrey Gregg In a world often shadowed by division and strife, love stands as the most transformative force we possess. It is not merely an emotion, but a choice—a daily commitment to see the divine spark in every person, to extend kindness even when it is not returned, and to build bridges where walls have been built. Love, as taught by the great spiritual traditions, is the very essence of God’s nature. It is patient, kind, and selfless. It does not envy or boast, nor does it keep record of wrongs.

Paul describes this journey beautifully:  “For we walk by faith, not by ...
