Many Christians are paralyzed by our cultural moment. How can the church witness to Jesus? Does evangelism still work? In this interview, Katharine Guerrero discusses the message in Andrew Forrest’s book, Love Goes First.
The only way to truly change the world is to truly love it, and the only way to truly love it is to go first and move toward it.
The four options available to the church:
- The dead end of accommodation.
- The impotence of mere judgment.
- The mistake of withdrawal.
- The pursuit of love.
—
To love is to will the good of the other.
–C. S. Lewis
In a world marked by fear, division, and mistrust, the Church is called to go first in love—because loving our neighbors isn’t optional, it’s commanded by Jesus. Love Goes First by Andrew Forrest offers a simple, powerful framework to risk connection with others, even when it’s uncomfortable or misunderstood. Readers will walk away inspired to build relationships of respect and transformed by a deeper understanding of God’s redeeming love for the world.
