common ground

We were sick last week. As soon as we got well, we got sick again this week. So- just ugh.

That said, I want to direct you to Grace's post called Finding Common Ground. She addresses the issue of homosexuality in the absolutely best way I've seen yet. Please read it if you haven't. I firmly believe that the church must collectively take the approach Grace has taken. We must. If love isn't first, then we aren't the church. Here's a little of what she wrote:

"As believers, both male and female, we are all on the journey to knowing God. Part of that journey is the transformation of our hearts and lives to the wholeness that He intends for us. Whatever a person’s struggle with sin or sexuality, we are to be a source of love and encouragement to one another, not judgment."
