What a beautiful insight into loving others through loving God.
We miss God’s unequivocal love and grace
Deciding Fuller, Calvin or Augustine
We miss God’s unequivocal love and grace
Ears closed down tight, we rush to “save,” intervene
“Believe This!” “Vote that!” begins the great schism
There’s black and white, no gray questions in between
Points of view on bread and wine and baptism
Exclusion requires no apology
“Believe This!” “Vote that!” begins the great schism
From Creation time to eschatology
When we could use His Word to build unity
Exclusion requires no apology
We form split tribes instead of community
And spew anger and argue on the Bible
When we could use His Word to build unity
Is it inerrant or perhaps infallible?
And spew anger and argue on the Bible
We miss God’s unequivocal love and grace
We miss God’s unequivocal love and grace
A Perspective From The Pew & Street 
Thank you, Tom. This is all so good. I appreciate you sharing with us. I’ve missed touching base. I’ve had a weird season, mostly of rest, but also of some interior work. I *hope* I’m ready to blog more faithfully again . . . anyway, thank you especially for reaching out to me during my silent times. God bless you!
