A Prayer for Our Tinderbox Times, on this Fourth of July

A call to practice reconciliation is challenging. It will be met with a charge, from many, of “both-siderism.”

Do Churches need to put Better Teams on the Field?

As tough as it is to say that maybe we haven’t been fielding very good teams for quite a while, there’s an upside to it. If it’s at least partly on us, then maybe we can do something about it?
