When a church is spending more of its budget on media than shepherding, something is out of whack. We have gotten things twisted around.

Worry is a complete waste of energy. It solves nothing.

Thanksgiving is a time of quiet reflection; an annual reminder that God has, again, been ever so faithful. The solid and simple things of life are brought into clear focus.

God seems to reward us with good, delightful experiences when we move with joy through the less-than-delightful times.

When each elder or pastor has his will aligned with the Lord's, we waste no time arguing for our own.

Another problem with worry is that it makes you forget your worth. Worry makes you feel worthless, forgotten, and unimportant.

Any idol, regardless of its beauty or usefulness or original purpose, is to be set aside so that Christ might reign supreme, without a single competitor.
