You think sometimes that maybe if the person who hurt you is clobbered you will feel a little better. But it actually doesn't.

If everyone who wants to see an end to poverty, hunger and suffering speaks out, then the noise will be deafening.

The pressure to succeed has a lot to do with why people overstep the line. It is a peculiar weakness of western culture where we have made a fetish of success.

I have seen firsthand how injustice gets overlooked when the victims are powerless or vulnerable, when they have no one to speak up for them and no means of representing themselves to a higher authority. Animals are in precisely that position. Unless we are mindful of their interests and speak out loudly on their behalf, abuse and cruelty go unchallenged.

As human beings we have the most extraordinary capacity for evil. We can perpetrate some of the most horrendous atrocities.

God hopes that we are going to love God back.

Forgiving is good for your health.
