THE ENEMY IS NOT IN HERE

There’s an old story of two American soldiers in Vietnam. While eating lunch in the mess hall, they exchanged harsh words. And they got into a big fight.

But the sergeant was there. And he grabbed those two soldiers by the collars. He took them outside. Pointed out to the fields. And he said, "Gentlemen, the enemy is OUT THERE! Not here!"

(From a sermon by Marc Axelrod, "The Cure For Quarreling" 1/21/2009)
