In my church’s newsletter, the Lynchburg Reformation Newsletter, there is a little line included in every issue. It reads, “While contributors are generally likeminded, we do not agree on every point. And we like it that way.”

This is similiar to what Chori Seraiah says:

I take a certain pride in the fact that I do not agree with Andrew Sandlin on every issue. Not the sinful pride of one who thinks he is better than someone else, you understand, but rather a Biblical joy in knowing that we do not have to agree on everything to be able to love each other as Christian brothers. We can sit down and enjoy time together discussing our lives, our families, and our Lord. No, I am not saying that we are perfect, but I do believe that we, together, are seeking to �walk worthy� of how God called us.

When Megan and I were planning on moving to Lynchburg, we would come out on Saturdays and look at various apartments, trying to find a place to live. One time, the guy asked for a $20 deposit, then he’d give us the key and we could go look at the place. I have heard too many stories where you come back to return the key and they say “what deposit?”, so I asked for a receipt… Just something to show that I gave him twenty bucks. He refused to do it, took his key back and sent us on our way.

That is all. Except that I’m glad we didn’t rent from that guy.
