DIVORCE is a KILLER
Let's talk about DIVORCE. Is it ALWAYS off-limits? Might there be ANY circumstances, Biblically, when divorce would be justified? Can we have compassion on people no matter WHAT their situation is? And is there any conflict between God's perfect laws, Moses' 'policies' that he wrote, and Jesus' controversial words on the subject? And... would it worth being punching a buddy in the face over it? I mean, if you even care a LITTLE BIT about multi-generational family building... THIS SUBJECT MATTERS so let's get down to brass tacks!
