Guest post by Maki Moussavi: We've all been there.

Polarization grows. In 1996, Pew Research found only 20% in each political party viewed the other unfavorably. Today, the number is more than double this percentage.

It is unhealthy.

Most cities struggle to cope with traffic congestion, with various policies designed to counter it. One of the more logical revolves around disrupting the 9-5 invoked rush hours at either end of the day that place tremendous strain on transport infrastructure. Whether it’s encouraging people to start and end their working day at different times, or working from home, flexible working has quite logical benefits, yet walking through any major city during rush hour highlights just how poor t

I said, without reservation, first and foremost, I look for the heart. I want a heart which honors Christ more than self, one which desires to grow and learn, and one which is willing to sacrifice personal privilege for benevolent purpose of others.
