The primacy of love

"Being a disciple of Jesus is not primarily a matter of getting the right ideas and doctrines and beliefs into your head in order to guarantee proper behavior; rather, it's a matter of being the kind of person who loves rightly - who loves God and neighbor and is oriented to the world by the primacy of that love."
(James K. A. Smith, quoted by Jim Marsh in "Education Solution - Christian and World Class," Christian Home & School.  Fall 2011.)
