This have several nice verses but no practical advice. We've had problems in the past and I always tell my boys don't start anything...but finish everything. God calls us to be meek...but at times...God calls us to engage ANY wars we have in our lives. Smaller children do well with "and so" or ignoring it...past junior high...I tell my boys...... Read Moredon't ever hit...but if someone hits you...finish the problem and you won't be bullied again. This came up 7th grade...they handled the problem...and there has been no bullying ever since. God has called us to be meek...not week...so sometimes things get physical if a child starts sometihing.

I have to agree with everyone here. And like you said, Lorrie, the verses in the article were nice and I found them encouraging.

I have four young sons, and the two in school have come under bully attack, in a Christian school. Amazingly enough, my eldest son's biggest bully is now his best friend! One thing that I have always told my sons is... ... Read MoreRead More that God had put that "bully" in their lives for a reason....and perhaps one of those reasons is to show my sons what NOT to be like. I have always kept an eye on the bullying, and their ability to handle it. There have been several incidents where I have had to approach the teachers, and things have been remedied quickly. As one of the teachers said...BULLYING, IN ANY SHAPE OR FORM, IS NOT OKAY!

Lorrie and Kevin, I also like your point that we are to be meek and not weak. We are not to be door mats. Jean, I like the advice given by your principal, about your body being the temple of the Holy Spirit.

Don't forget Psalms 11:5: "The LORD examines the righteous, but the wicked and those who love violence his soul hates."

I believe in self defense and training ones self to be able to fight for yourself, but to fight for profit and fun? This world is becomeing Rome....

I have never liked or supported these types of "sports," and this article sums up quite nicely why.

that is so awesome, go ye unto ALL the nations! Let's keep spreading the word.

focus more on budhism

our church prayed for your ministry last night

the point isn't about people casting stones it's about people standing up for what's right. When you became saved you put your old ways behind you and you are no longer considered a sinner but a saint. That being said if you are not against sin you are not with God. If you are not against gay marriage it will legalized around the country and you... Read More will be party to allowing the minds of the youth and anyone else to be corrupted by the thinking that it's OK. When gay marriage is accepted as the norm no one will think it's wrong and so the moral degradation of society will continue and you will have stood for nothing at all.

Be a light. The light you are to be is beautiful and it shines through living by example. It is not for you to judge the non-believer. It is for you to show them the love of Christ. Thank you, Whitney Jones Norman.

Baie Dankie!

Could you explain what John the baptist ate was it a plant or a bug. Wild honey and Locusts. Also, did Mary have a sister named Mary the she gave to Joseph?

I've always wondered about this- thanks ;)

Awesome! So many people get this confused. The thing with the "security gate" is that those gates didn't exist until midevil times, well after Jesus walked the earth.
