A dramatic question for our time: will we become a country that is known for exporting markets, dropping bombs, guzzling oil, handing out birth control and condoms, spreading pornography or will we be known as a country that spreads friendship, peace, and true freedom around the world?
Who is the model of an American in the Middle East? Is it a soldier, an oil baron, a CIA agent, a porn star or a businessman? Could it ever be a new St. Francis, someone who goes to the Middle East to befriend them, perhaps learm from them, and maybe each will gain from the other a deeper insight into knowing and living the truth? St. Francis went to befriend the Sultan, with the hope of winning the Sultan over to his side. This, I propose, should be the model of engaging the people of the Middle East.
