03870 – Dear Christian…
Dear Christian, The clearest picture of what we truly believe isn't revealed by our knowledge of Scripture or our theological arguments. The clearest, most vivid display of what we truly believe is revealed by how we treat other people. It is by our love or our lack...
03857 – Better Religion
Some people believe the alternative to bad religion is secularism, but that's wrong... The answer to bad religion is better religion--prophetic rather than partisan, broad and deep instead of narrow, and based on values as opposed to ideology.
