Many Christians treat issues like schools, politics, taxes, and public policy as matters of personal conviction. But what if loving our neighbors isn’t? A look at Romans 14 and 15 reveals a challenging truth: Christians may have freedom on many secondary issues, but we do not have freedom from the obligation to seek our neighbors’ good and build them up…even when those neighbors are teachers, administrators, politicians, or people we disagree with.
I’ve been thinking a lot about why it feels like we’re all angrier than we used to be. Not just “them.” All of us. We say we want unity. Our leaders talk about compassion and the common good. But somehow we keep rewarding outrage instead. I wrote something personal and honest about what’s happened over the last decade, what social psychology says about why arguing hardens us, and what Scripture actually says about anger and rivalry. It’s not a rant. It’s not partisan. It’s me trying to wrestle out loud with how we become people who don’t “bite and devour one another.” If that resonates, I’d love for you to read it.
