One of the points that came up was about fights worth fighting for.
Julien talked about how there are loads of fights going on everyday, the fight against AIDS, the fight against cancer, the fight for a better life for your family, the fight for peace, and many more. However, very few people are actually taking part in these fights.
It's true that we don't actually have to be on the front line to be in the fight, though someone does (so why not you or I?) but there are plenty of people who sit by and don't even know the fight is going on. There are even some people who are spectators with ringside seats who cheer on the home side but have never done anything to help.
So there is a challenge in the book, What is worth fighting for, get in the ring and fight for it.
This got me thinking about what I think is worth fighting for? What AM I already fighting for? What should I be fighting for?
Let's start with the first one. What is worth fighting for?
The kingdom of heaven
- Good news of the poor
- Support for depressed and lonely people
- Help for those with addictions
- Support for ex criminals/
- Support for people who suffer loses
- Giving people a reason to rejoice
