Potatos vs Rice

[Richard OFfill]

I have been married to my wife for sixty years. I will have to confess to you that even after sixty years my wife and I still have irreconcilable differences. One of them is that she prefers rice and I prefer potatoes. I am sure there is nothing I can do to change that. To try to get her to like potatoes as I do would mean to fight every day, The issue of rice and potatoes could ignite a fire that could even put our marriage at risk.

Although my wife and I are diverse in many ways, the union we have developed during these years is not unity in diversity, but rather unity in spite of our diversity. I am convinced that we are shooting ourselves in the head if we continue to emphasize our diversity, as some churches have been trending in recent years.
