Saw this French Bible at the thrift store, and it immediately made me think of that one quest in the Outer Worlds.

Richard Allen, bishop in the AME church, writes on obedience. Avoiding debauchery, idleness, fraud, and neglect of family, is not the full Christian life. One who’d rest on those laurels needs to be asked, have you been charitable withal, in every situation?
Today, are we making charity an option, a distraction, from the marks of a life of Christian faithfulness?
How can you strive for praiseworthiness in every aspect of life?
Happy Easter all
Jacob's wrestling with the angel is a testament to the power of perseverance, the transformative nature of encounters with the divine, and the enduring human quest for blessing and identity. It also hints at the often difficult and challenging nature of our relationship with God.

Eliphalet Nott was a Presbyterian minister and president of RPI (Union College). While lecturing on the importance of temperance, he states that it would be madness not to innoculate one’s children against small-pox. Even if the child’s chances of dying were only one in 10k. Here, he doesn’t get into any issues of freedom or conscience, just the idea that a Christian who cares about themselves and their family will do something.
