    Compassion must be owned personally, and we must know that we do have the resources to meet needs. However, it will be costly to do so.

    If we suppose that the essence of being compassionate is simply to have mushy feelings about somebody, we are dead wrong.

    Contributed by Terry Frazier on Feb 1, 2014
     | 8,178 views

    A couple of weeks ago I preached a message on the Christian views on legalizing marijuana in America. If you’ll recall, I wasn’t very supportive of the idea. The notion that we can legalize sin and somehow make state sanctioning of sin a good thing despite the fact that legalizing ...read more
