Micah J. Sturm

“Where do you stand on [insert any issue here]?”

My response:

“On an island between two worlds.”

At least that’s how I feel like responding.

Our culture divides over everything and the Church blindly joins in the fight.

Unity cannot come from divided hearts.

“Love” without boundaries is insufficient for our need. But holy love makes all the difference.

Holy love centers on Christ Jesus, not on us.

Holy love calls us to come just as we are, but refuses to leave us the way we are.

Holy love creates humility in the heart, replacing all pride.

Holy love is not learned by lecture or gained by effort, it is a supernatural gift of God gushing from His Spirit in continual waves of grace.

Whatever the issue, holiness is life that is controlled by love moment-by-moment.

That’s where I stand.
