Are societal norms shifting, and if every country has a culture and, every community, multiple sub-cultures how can we gauge manners?

We talk about seeing ourselves in previous times where God came down harshly his people for rejecting him. Plus, is there anything we can learn from people of other faiths?

We discuss the hard balance of living in the freedom and grace of God, but not abusing it. We also chat about having a strong, but misplaced passion for God.

There's a ton of historical pieces we can fit together that paved the way to Jesus, and for us to hear about him. We also discuss preconceived notions we might have of people who don't follow Jesus.

How should we exhibit and work out patience? Carder shared about his journey through the book of Isaiah.

Have you ever been humbled? Do you resent it or learn from it?
