This is a very refreshing article. I appreciate your focus on what we all share - a desire to honor Jesus, and your very generous kindness to people who disagree. You model, both in this article and the comments section, what you preach here. Thanks for cultivating this kind of warmth - I am hopeful it will and does have an impact.

P.S. having lived in San Francisco many years, where the fog was an ever-present depressant during the summer, I too am thankful for the sun!
