I have watched Jim Wallis, one of founders of Sojourners since I first met him and his fellow seminarians in 1972. Wow – that date makes me feel old. As I see how he has lived his life in total commitment to the demands of Jesus Christ, I am humbled. If I were the Pope, not only would hell freeze over but Jim Wallis would be the first one to be named a Saint. Which would make him laugh I am sure.
Anyway, I encourage all to subsribe to their on-line magazine. Today’s article about the Advent in Iraq is well worth the time.

I have taken the non-violence vow. I invite ohrets to join me in a vow to not watch gun violence, not on television, nor at the movies, nor in video games.Watching gun violence de-sensitizes us to its destructiveness and exposes our children to images they should never see as a normal part of life.
