The world asks for a revolution but a revolution is simply the process of going in circles. What they really need is to identify the wrong way, turn about, and then head in the right way. What the world needs now is not revolution but redemption. mjg/11

Of Foolishness and Wisdom
1 Corinthians 1:25, “For the foolishness of God is wiser than men, and the weakness of God is stronger than men.” Your role, Christian, is to live in God’s foolishness, appearing the fool to all.
