    Contributed by Paul Andrew on Jan 27, 2019
     | 5,026 views

    A “Manual” for Escaping Our Vicious Cycles through non-violence is what the Sermon on the Mount has been called; to transform the adversary - and, in the process, to be transformed ourselves.

    A look at our frequent lack of joy and how more clearly understanding what God has done for us can remedy that.

    A QUESTION: Why is there often so little joy among Christians? - Luke 1:14. - This verse highlights the joy that John will bring: “a joy,” “delight,” “rejoice.” - Is that atypical? Is joy supposed to be a standard part of the Christian life? - I believe that ...read more
