Glorious Moment by liberal Mainline

Since the last part of the 20th Century an issue with the Church has been its relevancy to our times. I found an increased understanding of people when the church I attend acknowledged recovery. Disability, addiction, and illness ofttimes are called unAmerican, but the conditions are not illegal in and of itself. Lying, cheating, and getting oneself in jail are not positive effects, but innocence is one method to good care and love from respect you need.

Soft on the Problem

Conformity and punishment leads criminal justice for adults. A jurisdiction applying corrections with intolerance and a lack of understanding is often unfair and is not always efficient to strengthening progress. Utilizing my elected school board wishes as an official I spoke on the board against "behavior catches" in favor of character enhancing learning methods. Instead of so much tattle telling and making examples of unwanted behavior, we could reform people holistically with community supports.

From a Minister's Son

Certain occupations stamp their children with significant impact outside of what is provided to them. Albeit sometimes misguided in following a set of teachings, sons and daughters of ministers can live through intentional testing by their parents, the pulpit of the church, or the congregational throngs. Getting the community to act with care and love and truth is one discipline that lacks accountability. A less passive, somewhat aggressive style of Being can accept conflict and punishment of the inner group more than preaching peace and kindness.

Prancing with Zilches

People who are never going to say anything of critical significance can play a mean isolation game. Quiet types who speak their mind at least some of the time can be worthwhile for their insightful contributions to the dialogue at the moment. Youthful behavior should be protected socially, politically and economically from exploitation, and it follows that a reputation shouldn't follow due to fairness to the young person.

A Life of Abundance

Take Living Abundantly to mean spiritually and not by measures of material wealth. Living Abundantly is more than fellowship. It is centered on love. Spreading the greater good in acts that are humanitarian, environmental, or empowering to faith are key to meaningfulness, which is a component of happiness. Whether single or with a family of your own, giving of oneself and sacrificing for others can well be sound judgment if the journey was an investment into a life well-lived.

Utilizing Churches and Synagogues for Recovery

Spirituality gives a feeling of oneness among people and is a wholesome force for the more complete self. It can help people feel someone is guiding them with a greater strength to make the right choices which may be difficult socially and biologically. For others faith and churches can be divisive influences if they are not appreciated.

Community Access Through Politics

Getting active in an altruistic cause or a movement of ideals is a good way to interact and meet people or in finding freedom of mental expression. Non- and bi- partisan thinking created my formula in public policy successes by stating the self help movement fits conservative philosophy in responsibility and work ethic. This is combined with educating people that mental health is a government spending program that requires understanding of what people we have are to the general public, which is what liberals are like.
