Avoiding the “Hate the Sin; Love the Sinner” Mantra

http://jimpowellonline.com/Home/ArtMID/606/ArticleID/1081/Avoiding-the-“Hate-the-Sin-Love-the-Sinner”-Mantra

Avoiding the Hate the Sin; Love the Sinner Mantra. For many years Christians have loved saying, “I hate the sin, but I love the sinner” when it comes to what other people do and to social issues in general.

What's Your Calling?

http://jimpowellonline.com/Home/ArtMID/606/ArticleID/1084/Whats-Your-Calling

What’s Your Calling? People or churches who have discerned their calling have greater focus and a broader sense of purpose. They are more discerning about what to engage in and what to refuse.
