This is a universal fact. It doesn t matter who my parents are, or what country I m born in, rich or poor; I m a member of the human race. Jesus came into the world for the salvation of all, not just the ones that look like me, talk like me, or are born into my faith, or country. If they are persecuted and have no safe place to call home, do I care any less for them as a fellow human being? Where is my compassion and love for the refugee, asylum seeker, the person working 3 jobs struggling to make ends meet? Who loves the residual casualties in any violent conflict? How can we even think a person is residual? We are created with so much potential to do and be good, to love all. Let s try to remember, love one another as I have loved you. Pray it throughout this day, to remember our world needs this unconditional love poured out into each corner of the world.

Video of the Week Dads, the stakes are high! Our children are facing enormous pressures today and the research shows that no one can build counterpressure into them like you can. They need to acquire a motivating belief system in their adolescence and have a sense of purpose in life or they will drift into self-absorption as adults. Formed.org gives you an incredible opportunity, especially using YDisciple studies, to watch compelling teaching and use the leader s guides for meaningful conversations with your teenager. They learn best when you make the time for them, listen to them, and share your heart with them. Don t underestimate your powerful influence nor abdicate this most important responsibility!
