"The pattern of this world is chock full of people taking
controversial stands on issues. Our world loves taking stands on issues.
The worldly approach is to shout your point of view whenever possible
and use any means necessary to make sure your team wins. And when
Christians follow the same pattern, it doesn’t matter if the stand is
different; we’re still following the same pattern.
What isn’t the pattern of the world is a position of
humility. Of love. Of stopping to listen to the person you disagree
with. Of compassion for your enemy."
Justin Lee, Worldliness in the Other Direction is Still Worldliness
