Fights within a family are often the bitterest sorts of disagreements, leaving scars for decades. We are currently in one such fight -- a feud between two of the great Abrahamic pillars of faith -- Christianity and Islam. We are family, but you wouldn't know it from the way we act. Indeed, our national dialogue was troubled by the refusal of the Obama administration to use the phrase "Islamic terrorism". Nevertheless the term has become so ingrained that we cannot hear "Islamic" without thinking "terrorism". It is as if we had permitted the KKK to speak for Christianity.

Dylann Roof
Dylann Roof, the mass murderer and white supremacist, may be the most evil person of our contemporary environment. He's 22 years old. I have a belt older than that.
If you ever wanted to hear a Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) minister preach about a mass murderer from a text by Fredrich Nietzsche in a Presbyterian Church, here's your chance.

Refugee
In the Gospel According to Matthew we learn of the flight to Egypt. Mary, Joseph and little Jesus share the experience of uncounted families in the Middle East today who flee for their lives.
