Evil Is a Real Thing

Sometimes I think Christian leaders refrain from talking about evil because, well, it makes everyone uncomfortable. But if we don’t acknowledge it, then it may be able to penetrate our lives without us even realizing it!

What is Love?

Real love is hard to define and hard to recognize; often we accept counterfeits. Some people think they can identify love by the strong emotion they feel. I don’t agree with that. If I loved only when I felt like it, I would not love often.
