Love doesn't equal condoning or affirming everything out there. Love like Jesus loved - which included tender love and God-affirming love (e.g., when he called out Peter in Matthew 16:23).<br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00653809174173950824noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7308329884699288394.post-46771645875230743902016-06-01T18:57:46.179-07:002016-06-01T18:57:46.179-07:00Very encouraging and practical.

Also, I would like to invite pray-ers to include our pastors' wives, as they try to be a good help meet to their husbands and deal their own loneliness.

Having guys who have gone before me to help me process things has and is invaluable. Also, having people like you, who are new in the battle helps to know we are not alone. I love you brother.

Wow, I am grieved at the normalization of this "sitting in front of the projected soft-core porn" together without any obvious concensus that we are sitting in the seat of scoffers (ps 1). It's really incredible that we just watch this together and nobody seems to get the reaction to throw a baseball bat through the tv (or just switch the channel, maybe?). I didn't know how I was supposed to react to this when I watched it with my church friends. So I just look down at the floor for most commercials feeling embarrassed about the whole situation that I'm supposed to think is normal. Thanks for giving me a place to vent. ;-)Alanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08314889411804444696noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7308329884699288394.post-65567462767326379292012-02-06T19:20:49.341-08:002012-02-06T19:20:49.341-08:00Get him married at age 13.

I've tried a couple of different times, but just find that I have nothing original to say, or that hasn't been said better by others. That's why I think I'm an excellent "tweeter." (kind of tongue-in-cheek) But since being away from Boyce I've contemplated starting a blog to help keep me accountable to both reading and writing. I think you blog has put me ready to commit to doing it. Thanks for this and I look forward to keeping up with you in this realm.<br /><br />Chris GarnerChrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15095511839502762192noreply@blogger.com
