Love is the Greatest Gift of All

"The greatest gift you can give your child is a home full of love
......because children learn what they live,
If a child lives with criticism, he/she learns to condemn,
If a child lives with hostility, he/she learns to fight,
If a child lives with ridicule, he/she learns to be shy,
If a child lives with shame, he/she learns to feel guilty,
If a child lives with tolerance, he/she learns to be patient,
If a child lives with encouragement, he/she learns to be confident,
If a child lives with praise, he/she learns to appreciate,
If a child lives with fairness, he/she learns justice,
If a child lives with security, he/she learns to have faith,
If a child lives with approval, he/she learns to like themselves,
If a child lives with peacefulness, he/she learns to trust themselves,
If a child lives with acceptance, he/she learns to love themselves,
to find love in the world, and to spread love throughout the world.

Becky,

I have your book "The New Atheist Crusaders and Their Unholy Grail" on my personal reading list for this month. I am very much looking forward to digging into it. I have read books by a few of these "new atheists" recently (Dawkins, Harris, Hitchens, et al), and am looking forward to an evangelical-progressive perspective.

Best regards,

Becky,

Forgive me for not having read any of your books yet (I have several on my wishlist), but I wanted to say that I have greatly appreciated your thoughtful articles and essay's on Jim Wallis' God's Politics blog, and on the Sojourner's site! Thanks and please keep up the great work- your balance of thoughtful insights and reflections with your heart for social justice are refreshing.

Best regards,

John from Abington, PA
