Don't minimize the influence of Gary Burton. I *think* he's still alive.

Amen, sister.

Trump: "Following..."

Your thinking is spot on. No cathedral ever honored God.

This generation is really different in that they have clarity about hypocrisy that prior generations didn't have. Justifiably, people hate the hypocrisy. But, this also returns us to the question about if faith is *about* morality.

That's interesting, as *I* do not see it as related to morality (not my perspective when I was younger). For me, today, faith is about connection. The gospel is about connection, and from God's efforts to connect with me, I then become better at connecting with others, and so on.

I know you don't do the church thing, but you would enjoy the sermon I posted.

Crazy, isn't it? But, it's actually quite biblical to accept help where it's offered. Lots of examples. Examples the conservatives would like to forget.
