| We love because He first loved us. 1Jn 4:19 Mark Gordon Fee is the founder and director of First Loved Ministries, Inc. which began as a work of God in his own life 18 years ago when he became the Sr. Pastor of the Vineyard MetroNorth in Melrose, MA. We seek to offer you tangible ways to become (re)acquainted with the deep, abiding love of God for you and through you. To that end, our mission is: To provide God's people with tools and experiences that move His amazing love from their heads to their hearts to the world!
What does First Loved Ministries Offer? We currently offer two Biblically rich, experience oriented seminars entitled "The First Loved to Love Experience" and "Getting Along in the Family of God." The "First Loved to Love" Seminar consists of 6 sessions. The first four sessions explain how we can experience joy and fulfillment by loving God and others as He first loves us. The remaining two sessions address how our beliefs and hurts, which come from living in a "conditional" and pain-filled world, create barriers that prevent us from receiving and giving love. By the end of the seminar, you will have not only learned ways to remain in the love of God, but will have richly tasted of His love during the event. The "Getting Along in the Family of God" Seminar provides practical applications of Biblical principles to help us with our conflicts with each other; i.e., to help us to love our enemies. It provides specific skills for walking out a text like James 1:19 "Be quick to listen, slow to speak and slow to become angry." Or, Ps. 4:4 "In your anger, do not sin; when you are on your beds, search your hearts and be silent." The "Getting Along" Seminar helps to expose many of our unhealthy and often sinful ways of dealing with hurt and conflict and in their place, provides solid, learnable, Biblical skills. (We strongly discourage taking the Getting Along seminar without first taking the First Loved seminar as we have found that people need to know how to experience God's love well before delving into their hurts and pain.) First Loved Ministries has also produced a CD called "Rejoice Over You" that allows you to hear God "singing" and speaking directly to you, from His heart to yours, through personalized scriptures. CDs are available on-line and at all First Loved Ministries seminars.
