“Would Christ feel comfortable in an environment where men and women are consuming alcoholic beverages, gambling away their money, and engaging in conversation that is often filled with the baser things of life?

Like a corrosive acid, this kind of anger eats away at our bodies and souls, yet we may not even be aware of its presence.”
