		<description><![CDATA[The ancient Greek&#8217;s viewed god as judgmental, angry, and elderly&#8211;detached from the world waiting just for someone to do something wrong. Sadly, this Greek view has permeated Western society. According to USA Today Religion survey: Out of the  91.8% say they believe in God, a higher power or a cosmic force, they had four distinct [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Loving one another is the core of our Christian walk. The phrase &#8220;love one another&#8221; is repeated at least a dozen times in the NT. We are also commanded to submit to one another, encourage one another, care for one another, forgive one another, and edify one another. Jesus taught &#8220;to love one another as [...]]]></description>

God said in the book of Hosea, “For I delight in loyalty rather than sacrifice, and in the knowledge of God rather than burnt offerings” (Hosea 6:6 ). Sacrifices [...]]]></description>

And ﻿these words which I command you today shall be in your heart. ﻿You shall teach them diligently to your children. (Deuteronomy 6:6-7).]]></description>
