Today's thought comes from William Sloane Coffin, former minister at
Riverside Church in New York City. Since July 4th is upon us, I think that his
words are appropriate. Happy 4th.
There are three kinds of patriots, two bad, and one good. The bad ones are
the uncritical lovers and the loveless critics. Good patriots carry on a
lover's quarrel with their country, a reflection of God's lover's quarrel with
all the world.
