To be a great Christian, we must do one thing above all others. We must not look to human beings for our role models. Humans are perfectly imperfect.
Use the source of your beliefs, say Jesus or Muhammad, as your template.

On April Fool’s Day 2009, jeff noel began writing five daily, differently-themed blogs (on five different sites). It was to be a 100-day self-imposed “writer’s bootcamp”, in preparation for writing his first book. He hasn’t missed a single day since.
What if Christians (and the world) could cut the ties to hypocrisy? Photo: Two nights ago after winning Regionals.
Christians are so flawed.
i’m so flawed.
You’re so flawed, even if you’re not a Christian. Humans are flawed.
The Bible says marriage is between one man and one woman. This has been interpreted to mean any sexuality other than heterosexual is bad.
When married in a Christian Church, marriage vows include, “Until death do us part.” This is interpreted to mean divorce is only plausible with infidelity.
Does an American divorce rate over 50% get immunity from being “bad”?
To me, it seems gays, lesbians, and transgenders are wrongly targeted.
To be fair, shouldn’t the same level of distaste and contempt apply to divorce?
Am i the only one who seems the hypocrisy and injustice here?
Wouldn’t it make more sense to focus on love, compassion, and acceptance?
As long as love drives our life, isn’t everything else just a uniquely individual detail, that no human is qualified to judge?

If you doubted you would see the morning light, who would you want to talk to for peace and comfort?
There is something contagiously different about working with them.
Who?
Christians.
In 3o years at Disney, i never attended a meeting that embraced using my Christian Faith as a work asset. As one of the most admired (#6 in 2014, #5 in 2015) companies in the world, Disney remained neutral so as to embrace everyone. i totally support that.
However, something wonderfully unexpected has happened. Simply by chance, nearly every company i’ve worked with this year has been an openly Christian-Centered organization.
It is way different. To talk openly about Jesus, God, prayer – wow.
Yesterday, on LinkedIn of all places, had a wonderful message exchange with another Christian centered company. It wasn’t until it was over that it hit me.
A joy and freedom i have never known professionally.
