In his new book, Alexander Strok, the author of serious studies on the nature and characteristics of Christ’s love, reflects on the bitter reproach of Jesus Christ addressed to His Church (“But I have this against you, that you have left your first love” (Rev. 2: 4)). He writes with pain that one can preach sound doctrine, be faithful to the gospel, be a person of impeccable morality, and work hard, but still lack love and therefore be displeasing to God. In this insightful and engaging book, Alexander Strock offers practical ways to cultivate love in local communities and the hearts of Christians.
