1-12-20 Let’s talk about being grateful. There’s a lot of pressure to hustle and get ahead. Long hours of work in school or at a job are encouraged by our society. And working is a good thing; in fact, we’re supposed to work. What can become a problem is when we stop seeing the thingsContinue reading “Attitude of Gratitude”

Where’s the Love?
10-28-18 It’s been a tragic week in our country. Again. Just a few years ago, there weren’t frequent mass shootings.

I hope you’re looking forward to the change in the season too. This summer, we took a church trip toContinue reading “What if I don’t feel God in church?”

John 15:19 says, “If you were of the world, the world would love its own. Yet because you are not of the world, thereforeContinue reading “In, But Not Of”
