differences office people
You want to make a difference in your world? Live a holy life: Be faithful to your spouse. Be the one at the office who refuses to cheat. Be the neighbor who acts neighbors. Be the employee who does the work and doesn't complain. Pay your bills. Do your part and enjoy life. Don't speak one message and live another. People are watching the way we act more than they are listening to what we say.

God leads us. God will do the right thing at the right time. And what a difference that makes.

The difference between mercy and grace? Mercy gave the prodigal son a second chance. Grace gave him a feast.

He seems perfectly suited to his role. He's comfortable in both (Anglo and Hispanic) cultures.
divorce blessing men
Biblically defined marriage is a man and a woman for life, and so anything different than that is not God's ideal whether it be polygamy, whether it be divorce, whether it be a marriage between a man and a man or a woman and a woman. The ideal would be a man and a woman under a covenant of God's blessing.
church reputation christ
I'm protective of the reputation of Christ and the church.
thinking talking views
I'd like to think I'm going upriver in talking about world-view topics rather than particular political or controversial topics.
