    Let us reach out to those who are pushed aside like the Jews have been, those who are marginalized because of their race or religion or other prejudice. We should not fear that which we do not understand but rather we should seek to understand that which we fear.

    Sick Religion And Healed Hearts

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Jul 29, 2003

    Religion is sick when it is system-only, salvation-only, or self-only. Christ gives us instead a relationship with Himself, a model of life, and an embracing compassion.

    Religion is either one of life’s greatest blessings, or it is one of the sickest things we do. Religion can be wonderful. I assume that because you are in church today you agree with that. Religion can be fulfilling, it can be instructive, it can be inspiring. Religion has driven so much of ...read more

    The sad reality is that most of the world lives by phrase, “I want to keep my options open.” But nothing great in life happens without making commitments. Commitments give our lives direction and purpose. In this message we’ll look at the four “P’s” of commitment.
