It's sad but true that some of the meanest folks I've ever met or heard of gather under the banner of Christianity. I'm sure most of you have heard by now of such groups as the Westboro Baptist Church and the hate and judgement they preach. I heard a new song by the band Casting Crowns today that gives a good response to folks such as them, including me at several times in my life.



And for those interested in the idea behind it, the lead singer even posted a video to tell us his reason for the song in his own words.




In end thought, I've heard it often said that the cornerstone verse in the bible of the Christian fait is John 3:16. But what is so often forgetten is John 3:17, For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him.
