“I believe that prayer in public schools should be voluntary. It is difficult for me to see how religious exercises can be a requirement in public schools, given our Constitutional requirement of separation of church and state. I feel that the highly desirable goal of religious education must be principally the responsibility of church and home. I do not believe that public education should show any hostility toward religion, and neither should it inhibit voluntary participation, if it does not interfere with the educational process.” IfsFeelsShouldBelieveDoeStatesShowsHomeSchoolGivenI BelieveProcessDifficultGoalChurchReligiousPrayerResponsibilityExerciseEducationalSeparationPresidentialInterfereRequirementsParticipationDesirablePublic SchoolHostilityChurch And StateSeparation Of Church And StatePublic EducationReligious Education Book:The Presidential Campaign 1976: President Gerald R.

“The clergy profession is fundamentally self-defeating. Its stated purpose is to nurture spiritual maturity in the church - a valuable goal. In actuality, however; it accomplishes the opposite by nurturing a permanent dependence of the laity on the clergy.

“Love in truth-caritas in veritate-is a great challenge for the Church in a world that is becoming progressively and pervasively globalized. The risk for our time is that the de facto interdependence of people and nations is not matched by ethical interaction of consciences and minds that would give rise to truly human development. Only in charity, illumined by the light of reason and faith, is it possible to pursue development goals that possess a more humane and humanizing value.” PeopleWorldGivingMindHumansReasonLightValuesNationsGoalChallengesChurchRiskDevelopmentBecomingConscienceCharityEnvironmentalPursueOur TimeEthicalSustainabilityInteractionHumaneHuman DevelopmentInterdependenceMatched Book:Charity in Truth Source: Charity in Truth
“My take on tithing in America is that it's a middle-class way of robbing God. Tithing to the church and spending the rest on your family is not a Christian goal. It's a diversion. The real issue is: How shall we use God's trust fund-namely, all we have-for His glory? In a world with so much misery, what lifestyle should we call our people to live? What example are we setting?” PeopleWorldWayShouldRealUseChristianAmericaGoalChurchClassIssuesMiddleExampleGloryMiserySpendingLifestyleSettingSettingsOur FamilyMiddle ClassFundStewardshipDiversionRobbingTithingBiblical StewardshipTrust Funds Author:John Piper
