A Little Thanks
As thanksgiving is approaching us I thought I would try and get us in the mood for the holiday.
Hurting People Hurt People
Someone wrote these words: “Hurting people hurt people.” I really believe that they are true! A father and a son were walking together in the woods and they came upon an animal that had been caught in a hunter’s trap.
Holy Sports!
My wife will tell you that I can’t bear to watch anything but the sports channels. Maybe your husband is like that.
How rich are you?
If I were to ask this morning what is the one thing you are most concerned about in your life, I guarantee there would be a large percentage of folks who would say finances or money.
Finding Personal Freedom
In his book Talking Straight Lee Iacocca shares some interesting stories about raising funds for the 100th birthday celebration of the Statue of Liberty.
Feeling Safe
I had someone in my office recently who is considering moving to the Village in the next year. One of the reasons she wants to come here is she feels it's safer here because we have security round the clock.
Managing Your Time… It’s a Crying Shame
One of my favorite sermons of all time was on the gospel for today and I saw and used the sermon title "Who will be crying at your funeral?"
What is Stewardship?
A friend of journalist David Halberstam was planning a visit to Japan. It would be his first visit, and he was a little anxious because he couldn’t speak Japanese.
Who does God care about?
In case you somehow missed the Gospel somewhere along the way, let me say it again: THE ONLY THING GOD CARES ABOUT IS PEOPLE.
Actions speaker louder, right?
Do people not care about the impact they have on others anymore? Are we so self-centered as a people that we no longer have any concern about the greater good?
