I'm not writing an opinion piece or a political article here. Nor is this is a religious message or an anti-religious one. These are simply five questions I've asked myself in the last 24 hours as I've sorted out how to respond to the violence taking place in our society. These are five questions that…

I was up most of the night scrolling social media, praying for my city, and asking myself some tough questions. Here are five questions we should all answer in light of ‪#‎Dallas‬.
