Fundamentalism starts with a righteous idea but advances it with a closed fist rather than an open hand.
It doesn't heal. It fractures.
fundamentalism—for all of its punitive power—simply cannot compete with grace in the contest for the human heart.

@NancyFrench The greatest example of being a Christian I ever had the pleasure of witnessing was my neighbor growing up. Mrs. S was so kind. She lived a simple life with her husband and 3 kids. She had an amazing garden and she used to make homemade jellies from it. She used to let me practice the organ over there. I never heard her raise her voice. She made me a beautiful fairy princess dress for Halloween and she took me to her church for VBS. I had a chaotic life and she was my oasis.
