Does anyone out there agree that so much of the violence we are seeing in schools and society is a spiritual problem and not necessarily a political one? I’m not opposed to gun reform, but I think as long as a human being desires to hurt others, keeping people safe will be very difficult.

Agreed! The shooters eyes screamed that he was operating under the influence of a very dark being. No person in their right mind would do such a thing. Christ cast out demons like that. I know that we need to pray daily for the protection of our schools and our students. God is bigger than this evil.

Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. 11 Put on the full armor of God, so that you can take your stand against the devil’s schemes. 12 For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. 13 Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand.

Yes entirely. It’s not a matter of what weapon is the issue because look at England and all their stabbing a since there are no guns. It’s a cultural and spiritual problem. Evil has entered the mainstream and this is the result. I feel us normal, god loving people need to be able to protect ourselves and I do own several firearms and have conceal carry permits. I wish our state had an option for teachers to take a class once a year to get certified to conceal carry under the agreement that you would never chase a bad guy down but for when you are in lockdown and are sitting ducks so you have one last line of defense. Gun owners are some of the most responsible people I know. (With exceptions of course like anything but as a whole)

I know it’s not easy, but that’s what I’m working on.

Hello,
I teach 4th grade at a Christian school. I have been teaching for over 30 years but I have been at this school for 2 years. Since I have been working at this school it seems like everything I do in my classroom it's something wrong with it according to my supervisor. Recently, I was told that I am not getting a new contract for the new school year. I have to find a new school. I was told that I am not a good fit for the school.

Love is patient and kind.
Love is not jealous, it does not brag, and it is not proud. 
Love is not rude, it is not selfish, and it cannot be made angry easily.
Love does not remember wrongs done against it.  
Love is never happy when others do wrong, but it is always happy with the truth.  
Love never gives up on people. It never stops trusting, never loses hope, and never quits. 
Love will never end.
Humbled, convicted, but thankful. Our Father, Jesus and the Holy Spirit love us this way!
