Jesus did not simply see people’s problems from a distance. He cared deeply about their suffe...

Dusting Our Feet Off: Walking in Peace When Others Won’t As Christians, we are called to live at peace with others whenever it depends on us.

Jesus gives us an important picture in Matthew 10:14: when people refuse to receive His message, His disciples we...
