				Letters to the Editor Christian Setbacks: A Question of Perspective It has always been interesting to me that of all the writers in the Bible, Paul is the more prolific. Yet, even given the amount of letters he wrote if you compare it to his years in Body of Christ very little is known about much of his life. He gives us all a thumbnail sketch of his life experiences and by such evidence of some of the very bad and trying times he faced. To me that is encouraging, especially when I am down or depressed over something or the other. When looking at my lack of growth is particular areas or my relapses into areas I thought I had a better handle on it becomes very discouraging. With Paul you see that he faced such setbacks. By inference, many setbacks, but he never QUIT! He got up each time he was knocked down, which is the lesson I (personally) need from his writings. Get up, get on with it, expect more and finish to the goal. Thank you for this article. -- Marcus Brown, Cypress, California When You and Your Parents Don't See "Eye-to-Eye" My name's Shauna and I'm 17 and I just read the article about When You and Your Parents Don't See Eye to Eye. It was good. I agree with a lot of what I read. But, I also think that we need one for the parents which would explain ways how they could react positively to situations and not discourage children so quickly when they hear something rather slight that they don't like. I'd like to an article geared to adults as this one was geared to teens. -- Shauna, Oregon Is Virtual Christian Magazine Available Only Online? Is Virtual Christian Magazine only online or is it also sent out in the mail? In order for me to read it on line I have to tie up my telephone line. -- Theresa Harris ED: We do not publish a paper version of VCM. This saves us tremendously in production and mailing costs.
