While uncharacteristically topical, the mandate still misses the point of greatest cultural interest. Valentine's Day is popular because it raises the much larger issue of romantic relationships, which may or may not be confined to traditional marriage. Genuine affection, true romance, Christian love: these are the proper subjects for prayers and sermons on February 14. --J. Douglas Ousley

Christianity in China will be an interesting subject over the next 20 years. I was there in January and am now giving three Lectures via Video to Beijing University. I also know many Chinese Students here. Last Friday I had lunch with a very wealthy Beijing Real Estate developer who was visiting NYC. His daughter is now a USA citizen and an Episcopalian. He is quite proud of her.
Get to China if you haven't been. It is quite a place and they are wonderful people.
