Re: Religious Conflicts

Well, I feel convicted (and that's a good thing). I am a Christian, and serious about my faith, but I haven't done a good job of letting my team know it. True, I don't schedule any meetings for Sunday mornings, nor will I skip church to attend a Sunday meeting that someone else schedules. But I need to do a better job of letting people know why. "Let your light so shine before others..."

Thank you, everyone, for the respect you are showing to people of different faiths. I can't expect everyone to agree with me, but I do expect to be respected for my beliefs, so I owe the same to others.
