Nomad Podcast Rick Love - Love Your [Isis] Neighbour? (N92)
Jesus told us to love our enemies. But surely not the monstrous soldiers of Isis?!
Rick Love is President of Peace Catalyst International, and Associate Director of the World Evangelical Alliance Peace and Reconciliation Initiative. He seemed like a pretty good person to ask what a Christian response to Isis would look like.
“Jesus is adamant about his peacemaking priorities. He calls us ‘hypocrites’ in fact if we fail to begin with humble introspection. Peacemaking according to Jesus always starts with our heart.” - Rick Love
