Fascinating topic! Right up my alley. :) The survival alone of Christianity as a faith was remarkable, let alone the adoption of it as the official religion of the Roman Empire. What a great story reminding us of how our lives should reflect Jesus and how people should see our light without knowing our faith. I love practical faith with giving and I love "you can't love without giving".
ReplyDeleteWhat a great topic. Generous, Compassionate and Kindness are universal topics throughout mankind. Learning about the history of Christianity and hearing about Roman background was fascinating. Hearing about how the prisoners were brought food night after night. His determination to find out who blessed them was unstoppable. He found out they were christians, how amazing was that! such a sweet story, thank you for sharing.
ReplyDeleteGenerosity, kindness, compassion are all evidence of the spirit of God working in daily life. We all need help with these qualities when dealing with strangers and those close to us.
