The Power of the Second Mile

Aug 30, 2026  •  The Rev. Charlie Holt

Love without a mask is the mark of a life being transformed into the likeness of Christ, according to Paul in Romans 12. Joined to Jesus' call to take up the cross, it refuses hypocrisy, hates evil, holds fast to the good and reaches beyond friends to strangers and enemies. Going the extra mile breaks cycles of retaliation, because Christ loved us while we were still his enemies.
