Last Thursday's meeting was at Cook Library Center. We had tasty Chinese food (YUM!) and Sue, the Director of Cook Library Center, told us the history of the library. Sue mentioned about the children coming to the library after school to do their homework and to read.
Because the children tell their parents they are at the library, their truthfulness increases the trust between them, their parents, their teachers, and their friends. The basis of people trusting one another is the foundation of human community, so says Lewis Smedes. When people trust one another, they may communicate openly and learn from one another. Communication unadulterated by lies and deception is what we strive for. Such truthful communication is one tool we need to mend the brokeness of this world.
