    God calls us to march on through hardships and discouragements.

    I believe the Bible is the most inspiring, encouraging book ever written! I also believe we often miss the fullness of inspiration God desires for us. We miss it partly because we live in a VIDEO world (we would rather watch something than read it). We miss it partly because we live in a very ...read more

    Unstrained Mercy

    Contributed by Alison Bucklin on Jun 9, 2011
     | 3,169 views

    Unstrained mercy needs to be constrained by the same constraints that God himself recognizes: by wisdom, by justice, by the long-term, eternal good of the person you are trying to help.

    We’ve seen a lot about pardons in the news lately, haven’t we. Why did former President Clinton pardon Marc Rich? The “fugitive financier” is the nicely alliterative phrase that all the commentators use - I bet the journalist who coined the phrase is wishing he - or she - ...read more
