There Are Folks Who Burn The Koran

We Give People Fish. We Teach Them To Fish. We Tear Down The Walls That Have Been Built Up Around The Fish Pond. And We Figure Out Who Polluted It.

One Of The Great Dangers In Political Engagement Is Misplaced Hope.

The Time Has Come For A New Kind Of Conversation, A New Kind Of Christianity, A New Kind Of Revolution.

I Am Convinced That If We Lose Kids To The Culture Of Drugs And Materialism, Of Violence And War, It's Because We Don't Dare Them, Not Because We Don't Entertain Them. It's Because We Make The Gospel Too Easy, Not Because We Make It Too Difficult. Kids Want To Do Something Heroic With Their Lives, Which Is Why They Play Video Games And Join The Army. But What Do They Do With A Church That Teaches Them To Tiptoe Through Life So They Can Arrive Safely At Death?

We Need To Be Politically Engaged, But Peculiar In How We Engage. Jesus And The Early Christians Had A Marvelous Political Imagination. They Turned All The Presumptions And Ideas Of Power And Blessing Upside Down.
