Paul's Solo Take: Resisting Negativity and Embracing Love
I'd like to see us resist the negative, resist the name calling, resist the hate, resist the bad mouthing, resist the blame, resist the broad brushstrokes and cling to what Christ gives us, which is love for each other, love for those who need it, love even for those who don't deserve it.
