GENE MONIN: Truth, integrity, honesty are 'casualties of modern life' (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The sin word is not common today, but it still exists whether you like it or not. It will exist as long as there are humans. Sin is everywhere: children dishonouring their parents, murder, adultery, lies, stealing, coveting a neighbour’s wife and and somebody’s possessions. We need look no further than public figures and leaders. They have no shame today admitting to their sins almost as a badge of honour. Truth, integrity, honesty and keeping your word are casualties of modern life. There’s no
GENE MONIN: Keeping your trap shut often opens doors to harmony (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Love, peace, and mercy – it sounds like Utopia. It won’t happen until each of us works for a peaceful family, workplace, friendly relations with all we inter-leaf with. As far as it lies with you, be at peace with all and be a good example to everyone. Avoid arguments that lead to anger. The best lesson I learned is that it’s not important to always be right or winning. If things get hot in a disagreement, say, “You have a point there,” and stay quiet. It takes two to argue.

GENE MONIN: Simply saying thanks makes all the difference (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Many parents and grandparents say the same words when a grandchild doesn’t call them or write to acknowledge receiving a birthday card and gifts: “Where is the thank you?” Not even a text message. They are quick to take a gift and slow to thank. Whatever your circumstances, be thankful and say so. Silent gratitude is useless; if you are thankful, broadcast it. Gratitude dispels an atmosphere of complaints and anxiety. Consider thankfulness as the overflow from a humble heart, and complaints as t
GENE MONIN: Churches remain 'Christian ghettos' unless new blood attracted (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Western society is selfish; listen to the chat in lunchrooms and coffee shops. It is all about us and me. Churches are no different. Their in-groups chatting before the service begins resembling kids’ cliques at school. With aging congregations, and an estimated third of Canada’s 27,000 places of worship likely to shut down by 2035, you’d think members would look for newcomers, welcome them, sit with them and invite them after for coffee or lunch. Instead, empty churches are closing. Chatting me
Monin: Mercy is something we should all give to others (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The world needs more mercy. One Bible verse says, “mercy triumphs over Judgment.” Another “the wisdom from above is first of all pure. It is also peace loving, gentle at all times, and willing to yield to others. It is full of mercy.” Mercy is like a diamond; it is multifaceted. Mercy has seven faces. If you are an agent of mercy, it will transform all your relationships. Mercy means being patient with people’s quirks. Ahh!! How difficult it is to be patient in a world demanding fast food, resul
