#IStand vs. #TakeAKnee

As I watched my Facebook and Twitter feeds erupt over the weekend, I found myself grieving for our country. It seems so clear to me that our great adversary, Satan, continues to tighten his grip around our collective throats. The rage, hate, and vitriol is shocking.  The name-calling and character assassination is appalling.  We appear locked in perpetual adolescence, unable to see beyond our own emotions. In the midst of it all, I have found myself asking, "How would Jesus respond to this situation?"

The bar was packed as usual.  Beer was served in a five gallon pail.  Literally.  The food was greasy but good.  Music was loud.  Folks were playing cards, pool, and catching the end of the Brewers game.  Our team commandeered a table and we began catching up on the week.  Chris, our team leader, was telling us about the new law offices he was having remodeled.
