 Faith, Culture, and all things in between.

Questions:

- How do we talk to people w/o gossiping or complaining? Most people won't talk to you unless you gossip with them. And if you don't you get excluded, in church or the world.

- I get what Joseph is saying about us finding our value in Christ. But it gets hard. I'm bullied by my roommates at home, my family, I have no friends, and work. I'm spending so much time in the Word and God has blessed me so much. But I'm finding that I'm pulling away from people because they all hate me and God loves me. What do I do? How do I love His kids, when they treat me and act like the enemy?

- How do I juggle the joy that I have in Christ and the heartbreak of being surrounded by people who hate me and attack me, while praising God honestly? I praise God and I'm called a liar. I cry from the pain and I'm told I need to find joy in Christ. What do I do?
