November 14, 2010 – Faith Comes Against Hate
Some say – I am offended by God sending Jesus to die on the cross. That’s too violent for me. Yes, violence offends. But let’s think about our world. Is it a civilized world with less or more violence than in past times? The newspaper reports that a violent video game broke sales records as…
