Forgiving Difficult People Series

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Oct 30, 2021

Jesus taught about dealing with difficult people. He stressed how we should not run away from our problems, or fight back against opposition, but that we should persist with people, so we can one day win them to faith in Christ.

There is nothing easy about the world in which we live. This is a world full of people, and if we are going to succeed in life, or be effective at sharing the gospel, we must learn how to deal with people, especially those who are difficult; and we must learn to love them no matter how they treat ...read more

Be A Servant To All People Series

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Oct 30, 2021

Mistaking People For Gods

Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on May 13, 2022

Ayn Rand's philosophy would have led her, I think, if put in the position of Paul and Barnabas, to say, “bring on the sacrifice. I am a god!”

When I was teaching, my religion class would always study the philosophy of Ayn Rand, a deracinated Jew whose ideal of rugged individualism influenced people like Alan Greenspan and Rush Limbaugh. Her notions would have led her, I think, if put in the position of Paul and Barnabas, to say, “bring ...read more
