I agree. It is indeed central to the narrative. I stressed on love, and giving as love expressed, that we don't get stuck looking at indwelling life, and thinking we've arrived somewhere. Although it is real, our ability to focus on it is fleeting, and because of this, and our fallen nature, it can become somewhat chimerical.

Case in point, the LC experience. Life, life, life, we sang interminably. Yet the barest issues were not only ignored, but repressed by leaders.
