Lady Mary Wortley Montagu. 2. When I have to deal with grouchy, negative people, I console myself as ...read more

    If we don't handle bitterness & hostility differently than the way most people in the world handles them, then we have not learned what it means to be a Christian. What did Jesus say?

    With the greatest message in the world to give, why are Christians treated with hostility?

    One of the things that confuses many Christians is the attitude of non-Christians toward them.

    God’s peace is not the same as the world’s peace - even though people filled with God’s peace DO bring peace to the world.

    We human beings are not naturally peacemakers. On the contrary: we’re naturally trouble-makers. A few years ago a group of people tried walking across America on a mission of peace. They couldn't get along and divided into two groups by the time they were half way across. According to the ...read more
