hope...

The video below is from an group called The Foundation for a Better Life.



Wow!


& from the Foundation for a Better Life's website About Us page:
The mission of The Foundation for a Better Life, through various media efforts, is to encourage adherence to a set of quality values through personal accountability and by raising the level of expectations of performance of all individuals regardless of religion or race. Through these efforts, the Foundation wants to remind individuals they are accountable and empowered with the ability to take responsibility for their lives and to promote a set of values that sees them through their failures and capitalizes on their successes. An individual who takes responsibility for his or her actions will take care of his or her family, job, community, and country.

What exactly are some of these values of personal accountability they are encouraging?

Appreciation
Believing In Others
Caring
Commitment
Compassion
Cooperation
Courtesy
Dependability
Diversity
Doing The Right Thing
Forgiveness
Friendship
Gratitude
Honesty
Hope
Humility
Integrity
Listening
Love
Loyalty
Perseverance
Respect
Responsibility
Sacrifice
Service
Sharing
Soul
Tolerance
Trust
Unity
Vision


An admirable and powerful list to say the least.

So, here's my question. [Of course, you knew this was coming...]

If a christianist saw this website and explored it, they would inevitably say that this is secular, left-wing propoganda. Which of the values in this list and the complete list on the website, is NOT part of true Christian belief?

of course, just asking...




[Note: check out the other videos they have here. They are all remarkable.]
