getReligionBlog links to a NYT story on an anti crime program in Florida that seems to work: Gladson finds God
not just accepting God into your life, but acting on it (and having others help you in your walk with God).
GR has a related item: A coach's eulogy for his wife.who died after a car accident.
Williams said this: “Everybody's praying for me and my family, which is right. But let us not forget that there were two people in this situation. And that family needs prayer, as well. And we have no ill will toward that family.
“In my house, we have a sign that says, ‘As for me and my house, we will serve the Lord.' We cannot serve the Lord if we don't have a heart of forgiveness.
“That family didn't wake up wanting to hurt my wife. Life is hard. It is very hard. And that was tough, but we hold no ill will toward the Donaldson family, and we as a group, brothers united in unity, should be praying for that family because they grieve as well.”\

why am I posting these religious stories? Because in a time when politicians spout hate speech, when the SJW and BLM demonstrations incite hatred of others whom they deem the "enemy", and when law and order types just insist we need more laws and policing and border fences and a litmus test on religion for immigrants, these two stories show that there is a third way to approach life. Woodlawn anyone?
The evangelical approach is part of the local culture, so it works, but it also works because unlike "catholic" outreach, which tells us to "help the poor", but often implies you are superior to these poor little people, it is an outreach to a brother who is equal...Maybe the Pope should notice and change his rhetoric...
