<p>The tribute gave me an opportunity to really look at Romans 15:7 and consider how I live out this verse in my daily life.</p>
<blockquote><p>Accept one another then, just as Christ accepted you, in order to bring praise to God.</p></blockquote>
<p>I&#8217;ve read this verse a number of times, but with E. LeBron Fairbanks tribute, my understanding was taken to new depths and I pray that it will change the way I approach tomorrow&#8230;and all my tomorrows.  Please <a href="http://docs.google.com/gview?a=v&amp;q=cache:DwahuJOHS-IJ:didache.nts.edu/index.php%3Foption%3Dcom_docman%26task%3Ddoc_view%26gid%3D752%26Itemid%3D+acceptance+of+others+in+the+church&amp;hl=en&amp;gl=us&amp;pid=bl&amp;srcid=ADGEESjiM2auCc4M6eJwF5NWoWvjAMPKLAW6VljKa2Z4Ol0oYTtRZSvdw1vXBZDUWOILz4flJEIxkY5wAvVFxSujGXaIOpUI2byf9uAMDEm0EFCHutVQQ00c1XKNe-7wA-LFXYoUtt99&amp;sig=AFQjCNFkp_foIhSQ_C-uVPU-N6SOuMs9NA" target="_blank">read the tribute</a>, and I pray that together, we can live a life that brings praise to God.</p>
