Reconciliation


Meaningful forgiveness is rooted in the narrative of the community, which provides the ethical context for reconciliation.

Only true forgiveness and reconciliation, not retributive violence, will resolve the issue of human aggression.

Forgiving and reconciling communities are evidence of God’s presence and the highest expression of humanness.

The Kingdom of God


This is the heart of the kingdom which Jesus proclaims: It is a kingdom of justice where the oppressed and outcast are welcomed, and where injustice finds it’s end. It is a kingdom where holy love compels humble servanthood and sacrifice. The totality of the Kingdom’s nature is evident in the life of Christ and he calls his people to follow his example, in giving up their lives to find true life in the Kingdom.

How can you NOT love 'The Obamanator'?

Any president who has wisdom to call Kanye West a jackass is a friend of the nation.
Yes CNN, we have bigger things on the plate than this (see Chaves, Iran, Afganastan, Child Slavery?)
