In The News: T.O. & Lord Byron
A couple of weeks ago two events happened on the same day, that represented the best and worst of our society.
First, former pro golfer Byron Nelson passed away from natural causes after having led a long and eventful life. Second, Dallas Cowboy wide receiver Terrell Owens was admitted to the hospital after overdosing on pain medication.
Teaching With Meekness
The apostle Peter wrote eloquently of the need to defend the faith in his first general epistle. He wrote not only of the need to share that defense, but also the demeanor expected of one who makes such a defense. “But sanctify the Lord God in your hearts, and always be ready to give a defense to everyone who asks you a reason for the hope that is in you, with meekness and fear” (1 Peter 3:15).
As we share the precious good news with others, we need to be meek, and fearful.
