Fact: Throughout history multitudes of people have been willing to kill and be killed in the name of their country, but very few have been willing to love their enemies in the name of Jesus. Perhaps we should listen to Christ and begin to honor, recruit, train, and send huge armies of nonviolent peacemakers to love their enemies in the world’s troubled places.

Nowadays our modern media through the violence it portrays is brainwashing ordinary people to kill and be killed and exposing our streets, shops, and even our schools to lethal violence.

About Steve Simms

I like to look and think outside the box. In college I encountered Jesus Christ and I have been passionate about trying to get to know Him better ever since. My wife and I long to see the power and passion of the first Christ-followers come to life in our time. I have written a book about our experiences in non-traditional church, called, "Beyond Church: An Invitation To Experience The Lost Word Of The Bible--Ekklesia." If you need encouragement, search for: Elephants Encouraging The Room and/or check out my Amazon author page. Thank you!
