Love your neighbor

As we settle into 2022, I think back to what’s happened in the last few years. Democrats vs. republicans, black vs. white, rich vs. poor, male vs. female, heterosexual vs. LGBTQ, attacks on houses of prayer, school shootings, and the list goes on.

It has been a sobering, sad time of loss.

I hope that we have learned something from these moments: we all have different backgrounds and preferences that lead us to be who we are today. But that doesn’t mean we should be on opposite sides, it just means that we should see that the differences are what make us interesting.
