It is personal, with things happening between people as well as to and in them individually; it is compassionate, always eager to help, observant but non judgmental toward others, breathing out hope and concern; it is creative, with imagination about each one in the group and its work as a whole, watching for authentic new vision coming from any of them; and it is expectant, always seeking to offer to God open and believing hearts and minds through which He can work out His will, either in the sometimes startling miracles He gives or in steady purpose through long stretches where there is no special "opening". It may fairly be said that unless one enmeshes himself in this "redemptive fellowship" of the church, he lessens his chances of steady growth and effectiveness, in his Christian life and experience.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7101</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We are very confident that those extremists will also fail to disrupt and derail voting day.

We pray, too often, not to do God's will, but to enlist God's assistance in maintaining our "continually increasing consumption". And yet, though Christ promised that God would feed us, he never promised that God would stuff us to bursting.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8370</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We want all our friends to tell us our bad qualities; it is only the particular ass that does so ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/5204]]></link><description><![CDATA[We want all our friends to tell us our bad qualities; it is only the particular ass that does so whom we can't tolerate.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/5204</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Streak of silver sea. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/13925]]></link><description><![CDATA[Streak of silver sea.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/13925</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Joy to the Toiler!--him that tills The fields with Plenty crowned;  Him with the woodman's axe that thrills  ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/62114]]></link><description><![CDATA[Joy to the Toiler!--him that tills The fields with Plenty crowned;  Him with the woodman's axe that thrills   The wilderness profound.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/62114</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I wish my deadly foe no worse, Than want of friends, and empty purse. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/13877]]></link><description><![CDATA[I wish my deadly foe no worse, Than want of friends, and empty purse.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/13877</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of Polycarp, Bishop of Smyrna, Martyr, c.155  We may search so far, and reason so long of faith ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8179]]></link><description><![CDATA[Feast of Polycarp, Bishop of Smyrna, Martyr, c.155  We may search so far, and reason so long of faith and grace, as that we may lose not only them, but even our reason too, and sooner become mad than good. Not that we are bound to believe any thing against reason, that is, to believe, we know not why. It is but a slack opinion, it is not Belief, that is not grounded upon Reason. It is true, we have not a Demonstration; not such an Evidence as that one and two are three, to prove these to be Scriptures of God; God hath not proceeded in that manner, to drive our reason into a pound, and to force it by a peremptory necessity to accept these for Scriptures, for then, here had been no exercise of our Will, and our assent, if we could not have resisted.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8179</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There's huge, massive mother ships going up to the Yukon.

He is free to move from place to place, from job to job, from acquaintance to acquaintance, and -- if he has attained a high degree of emancipation -- from wife to wife. He is in every context a more and more anonymous and replaceable part, the perfect incarnation of the rationalist conception of man. Wherever western civilization has spread in the past one hundred years, it has carried this atomizing process with it. Its characteristic product in Calcutta, Shanghai, or Johannesburg, is the modern city into which myriads of human beings, loosened from their old ties in village or tribe or caste, like grains of sand fretted by water from an ancient block of sandstone, are ceaselessly churned around in the whirlpool of the city -- anonymous, identical, replaceable units. In such a situation, it is natural that men should long for some sort of real community, for men cannot be human without it. It is especially natural that Christians should reach out after that part of Christian doctrine which speaks of the true, God-given community, the Church of Jesus Christ. We have witnessed the appalling results of trying to go back to some sort of primitive collectivity based on the total control of the individual, down to the depths of his spirit, by an all-powerful group. Yet we know that we cannot condemn this solution to the problem of man's loneliness if we have no other to offer. It is natural that men should ask with a greater eagerness than ever before, such questions as these: "Is there in truth a family of God on earth to which I can belong, a place where all men can be truly at home? If so, where is it to be found, what are its marks, and how is it related to, and dis tinguished from, the known communities of family, nation, and culture? What are its boundaries, its structure, its terms of membership? And how comes it that those who claim to be the spokesmen of that one holy fellowship are themselves at war with one another as to the fundamentals of its nature, and unable to agree to live together in unity and concord?" The breakdown of Christendom has forced such questions as these to the front. I think that there is no more urgent theological task than to try to give them plain and credible answers.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7045</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Success without honor is an unseasoned dish; it will satisfy your hunger, but it won't taste good. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58160]]></link><description><![CDATA[Success without honor is an unseasoned dish; it will satisfy your hunger, but it won't taste good.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58160</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Then I heard this young veteran on TV speaking about the war.
