From the safety of your own quiet time or small group Bible study, affirming Jesus' command to "love your enemies" is obviously the correct choice. Right? But what would you do if you actually had the chance to make a real-life enemy pay for the ways they'd wronged you?

Our guest this week, Brent Campbell, was faced with this exact decision. One day, during a summer workout for track, Brent was harassed by a group of fellow university students. After quietly absorbing the barrage of racist insults and death threats, Brent was left to decide... "How should I respond?" His decision might surprise you.
