Free Resource | Does the Bible Promote Tolerance or Intolerance?
One group says the Bible is a book about love, mercy, and kindness. They think of the story of the Good Samaritan and of Jesus telling us to turn the other cheek.

We desire and look for joy, and when we do not find it, we dull our senses with lesser pleasures, distractions, and entertainment, and soon enough there is a fresh search for something bigger and better. How do we find true joy?

When it comes to fear, some people cower or hide, others attack the thing that frightens up. But salvation isn't merely theoretical, it has a practical impact on how we live. We can be free from paralyzing fear.
