Joash has an interesting story because the beginning of his life starts out SO well! But then his life ends in such a BAD way! We talk about influence this week and how we are influenced by others and how WE influence others! What can we learn from the story of Joash?

Contributor: This week we hear from Kevin Longo who will share with us about a special woman in his life and how her walk with God -her devotion to God, made a profound impact in his own spiritual life at a young age.

Weekly Challenge:

• Monday: If married, list the characteristics of your spouse that not only attracted you to them, but also made them a wise and godly choice. If single, make a list of traits that God would like in a life partner.
• Tuesday: How has God used you in doing simple things to accomplish His work?
• Wednesday: Consider the temple either as your local church or as your body. Choose one
  and think about how you might help to improve your “temple” as Joash did.
• Thursday: Consider how God has preserved your life.
• Friday: Does God seem hidden to you? In what ways has He revealed Himself to you in the past?
• Sabbath: How can you bring about revival in your life?
