Signs of the Times

with contributions from Louis Spilman, W. H. Bourne

Louis Spilman, Editor of the Waynesboro News-Virginian Waynesboro, Virginia

I believe, from the bottom of my heart, that we are created to contribute something .... [and] that to contribute meaningfully to life we must first acquire self-mastery ...

The composite wisdom of the ages is found in the New Testament. It calls for mastery of our weaknesses and the necessity of personal effort .... Not only must we love our neighbor but we must love our enemy; we must judge not that we be not judged; we must do unto others as we would have them do unto us; if we are asked to go one mile we must go two.
