NEW Song! Words Kill
Continuing with James’ challenge regarding the tongue (see yesterday’s sermon post), the following is an excerpt of a recently created song based on lyrics from several biblical translations. The Message, in particular, has a pretty blunt rendition of Proverbs 18:21:
“Words kill, words give life;
they’re either poison or fruit—you choose.”Christ have mercy on our tongue-lashing tongues.

RFC 1 4/7/69
The Birth of the Internet and the Implications for Peacebuilding
April 7, 1969 is often treated as a symbolic birthday of the internet, because RFC 1, Steve Crocker’s “Host Software,” is dated that day. By the end of 1969, four computers were connected on the initial ARPANET, and what the Internet Society calls the “budding Internet” was underway.
What strikes me most is that the internet’s symbolic birth did not begin with a trumpet blast or a decree. It began with a request for comments. Not a command. Not a manifesto. Not a demand for uniformity. A request. An invitation to think together. RFC 2555 later recalled that in those early days, the Network Working Group understood its documentation this way: notes could be produced “at any site by anybody” and included in the series. That means the internet, at least in one of its founding gestures, carried a seed of humility, collaboration, and shared authorship.
That matters for peacebuilding. Peace is rarely made by proclamation alone. Peace is usually made the same way the early internet was made: by imperfect people sending unfinished thoughts to one another, testing language, revising assumptions, building trust slowly, and creating protocols for living together. In that sense, the best theology of the internet is not that it is omniscient or liberating by nature, but that it can become a commons of encounter. Its original form suggests conversation before coercion . . .Read the rest of the article at PeaceGrooves.

I just wanted to learn how to handle interpersonal conflict. However, I don't like jotting down notes because it seems too formal. I want to apply it in real life and enjoy it.

Opinions
They stare at me, scowling,
as I state my opinion.
Are they right? No.
Is their opinion greater than mine? No.
We all see in a different light.
So why do I feel like I am
wrong, tremble, and am still,
rather than hear their
contrary view?
I will speak
and so will they
and together we will
realize the brighter day.
