 At our Thursday Men’s Prayer this week, one of the usual crew declared in prayer, how thankful he was that despite of all the negative reports on the evening news, that he had perfect peace.

A glance through this morning’s Globe and Mail greeted me with, “Euro zone leaders tell Greece to take it or leave it,” referencing the fact that Greece nee...
