One man's burden.

I once had a close friend who was burdened for pedophiles. He was not one, but may have known of one or a few who were struggling with it. That took a lot of courage. He was working at that time at a downtown ministry that helped folks with some big problems and that problem may have have been among them.

I suppose, like everyone else, I care about some things more than others; one thing that weighs heavily on me is reconciling Christians who are divided over trivial matters, from all denominations that proclaim Christ, but especially those that are exclusive and divisive.
