This week's reflection on Revelation 2:1-7 highlights the commendations and condemnations given to the church in Ephesus. While praised for their good works, endurance, and sound doctrine, they were admonished for abandoning their first love for Christ and each other. The call to action is to remember, repent, and return to that initial passion and affection, ensuring that our faith is rooted in genuine love rather than mere duty.
