John 13:35 NASB “By this all men will know that you are My disciples, if you have love for one another.”

A few weeks ago we were driving down the turnpike to Tulsa and my husband pointed out a billboard that said something like “The first marking meter was installed in Oklahoma in 1935.” He wondered why Oklahoma would put up such a billboard; nobody likes paying parking meters, so why would Oklahoma want to be known for that?

Christians have unfortunately become known for being “judgmental” and “hypocritical” and “self-righteous.” And who would want to be known for those things? Jesus said we should be known for our brotherly love. Our churches should be seen as communities where we love each other and care for each other and meet one another’s needs. That kind of love can make the world want to join us!
