There has been some controversy surrounding some people's call to repeal this historic amendment to restrict clergy and non-profits from endorsing political candidates and parties. Read the article and tell me what you think?

All lives matter

I wrote this column regarding the recent killings of police and citizens. How do we mourn and remember both who lost loved ones? Hatred is what we must condemn on all sides. This is the side people of faith should take.
What do you think?
