What to do about
Predators
Christ’s gospel is not impractical. It is designed to give those who seek righteousness to be able to achieve it. Tolerance and compassion are needed. But tolerance and compassion do not include acceptance of sin.
Be patient, but be firm. If a person refuses to repent and forsake sins, end fellowship with them and invite penitent others who are interested in practicing obedience and love.
An Opportunity
Why Stand Now?
And, if another dispute later arises from other women’s councils, and there is a need, call another conference of the women and resolve the dispute by the voice of the women’s conference, as often as need arises.
01
Wise Council
I was asked this last weekend about what a fellowship should do when a predator or threatening individual comes among them.
02
Testimony
My conscience will not allow me to stay silent and I wrestle with the thought that perhaps my involvement to speak a thing may cause more divisive factions.
03
From the Husbands
Please, brother, let go of your wounded pride and pursue repentance rather than revenge.
Immutable
A principle defines predictable structure, and within that structure there will be an infinite number of ways that the principle will be expressed. But what makes something a principle is its consistency and inherent truth. Principles are true regardless of the situation or circumstance. They are observed.

Mother Goose
In the land of the pharaohs, geese were sacred to Ma’at, the goddess of truth, justice, and cosmic balance. Seen as her divine companions, these birds symbolized harmony and order. Egyptians believed geese carried messages of wisdom from Ma’at, guiding humanity toward a life aligned with fairness and integrity.
Allerleirauh; the many-furred creature
When the Princess saw that there was no more hope of changing her father’s resolution, she determined to flee away. In the night, when everyone else was sleeping, she got up and took three things from her treasures, a gold ring, a little gold spinning-wheel, and a gold reel; she put the sun, moon, and star dresses in a nut-shell, drew on the cloak of many skins, and made her face and hands black with soot.
Standard Operating Procedure
Hear me now: Let every person take care in how they use my name, as if I had part in their every dispute, for many things provoking arguments among the people are born from pride, stubbornness, aspiring for control, and reckless indifference toward me and one another. I bear with the people still, and patiently await the return of natural fruit in my vineyard. Do not be misled by my patience, for the time is quickly approaching for the harvest of my vineyard. Amen.
