I was recently involved in a discussion about the political climate in our country where the fighting between parties has come to the point where people are being publicly shamed for their beliefs. My answer and comments were as follows:

I'm always amazed when people say the Bible is not practical and/or applicable for modern living. The more I study, the more I'm blown away with God's wisdom in revealing to us our human condition and the state of our souls.

This past week USA Today ran a story where televangelist Jesse Duplantis tells his flock he needs a $54 million jet (USA Today Story). In an email between friends I responded. Below is the exact text - it is in a moment of rawness over this article that I responded. I feel exactly the same way right now.
