It is always the transformation of the smallest part that leads to the transformation of the whole. 
We groan and cry out in this painful life experience together. 
The cold, hard fact is that there are prayers that God does not answer.
Who can stand before this cosmically-sized love without being completely transformed?
The word wrath isn’t an unloading of God’s fury and rage on the unrepentant.
The forgiveness of God is unconditional and preemptive.
You may not trust these words now, but there is hope in your pain and suffering.
God, I am done with you.
For the words we use can be powerful weapons that wound, kill, and destroy, or instruments of blessing, healing, and life.
I can't overstate how important it is for each of us to have people in our lives that we allow to speak truth to us.
In private, I struggled with intense guilt, shame, and depression. I never talked about my abortion to anyone. Ever.
Our communities are in desperate need of people who love each other and seek out Truth in love and who can hear it without egos and attitudes.
“Oh my goodness. I thought you were some homeless guy and I wasn’t even going to pay attention to you.”
We have a tendency toward prolonging or avoiding pain because we believe it is too painful to deal with, but by avoiding it we prolong the inevitable.
Our time would be better spent discussing how to demonstrate a greater love to the Muslims or how we can better serve them with our actions.
Every single time we take the humble and submissive way of Christ, it may look like defeat for you as an individual.
