The commandment to avoid contention applies to those who are right as well as those who are wrong.

If our bodies are sick, we seek to heal them. We do not give up. The same thing should be true of our marriages.

The time has come in our society when I see great wisdom and purpose in a United States Constitutional amendment declaring that marriage is between a man and a woman.
