Just Around The Corner...

in his motorcycle and his family. He even invited them back to church. Needless to say, my friend was not happy and refused to go to church services again, though his wife really liked the church. He kind of gave up on Christ. Maybe one day he will get back into church and start growing again. Though my friend made a choice and so did the Church member, the fault in those choices is Gods to judge; the consequences, though, are real. When you dont focus on God you focus on the world are you living the Christian lifestyle? Come to the Mens Prayer Breakfast Oct 22 at 8:30am to learn more...

Staff Info

Are You Living The Christian Lifestyle? A Christian friend was driving down the road on his motorcycle at peace with God. The wind was buffeting his face, the road was wide open. While praying to God and having a good time he saw a bumper sticker that said Honk If You Love Jesus. While in the moment, he did, he honked. The person driving the car ahead of him got mad at him and made an obscene gesture. What was worse, was that the person was someone he had seen at church. My friend thought this man was a nice guy who honored God and that he was genuinely concerned with my friends Spiritual wellbeing. This person, though not an usher, had greeted him and welcomed him to the church he had begun attending a few weeks before. He was interested in the Leathers my friend was wearing,

Dont Miss Your Chance to Bless and Be Blessed...The Needs are Many A Guide for Giving
I do not believe one can settle how much we ought to give. I am afraid the only safe rule is to give more than we can spare. In other words, if our expenditure on comforts, luxuries, amusements, etc. is up to the standard common among those with the same income as our own, we are probably giving away too little. "If our charities do not at all pinch or hamper us, I

Foolish Talk
A pastor named P.S. Hensen was to speak at Lake Chautauqua on the subject of fools. His talk was likely based on 1 Corinthians 4:10, in which Paul said, "We are fools for the sake of Christ." Bishop John Vincent introduced Hensen with the follow-ing words: "Ladies and gentlemen, we're about to have a talk on 'fools' by one of the most distinguished (long silence, with laughter from the audience) men of Chicago." Hensen went to the lectern and said, amid giggles, "I am not so great a fool as Bishop Vincent (pause, silence, more laughter) would have you think."
