*On this last day of the year we do a lot of looking back and looking forward. Paul reminds us to look up as well. *I know of no quality more appreciated than kindness. To receive it is to be blessed; to show it to others is rewarding. In our Good News dictionary K is for Kindness *Every good translation wants you to hear exactly what an author said years ago in a different language. Let's see how that works out with one of Solomon's proverbs *When we give the best seat in the house to a rich visitor and put the poor man back in the corner, that is favoritism. James some strong words about this. Shout for Joy is a four-part blog that discusses the insights of: An Israeli king known for his wisdom – Solomon A Galilean teacher whose resurrection validates all he taught – Jesus A Jewish Rabbi who became Christianity's first theologian – Paul A straight talking leader in the early church – James
