At the Intersection with Doug Newton
A DIFFERENT BORDER CRISIS
Conflict continues to rage like wildfire over what’s happening at the southern border of the US. But in this episode I urge paying more attention to a different border crossing. Better vetting there can foster more peaceful disagreement, not just about the open border debate but any other divisive issue. Where is that border and what character traits are needed to guard it? I think you’ll appreciate my answer and hopefully become a peacemaker.
