Chance.  The word itself involves risk.  There is something else, but it is undefined.  It is attainable, but it's not certain.  All of the questions of "what if" suddenly appear.  But, one thing is certain, without taking some risks, things will never change.  Does life feel stuck?  Maybe it's time to take a chance.

People are challenging.  We are all a mix of our emotions, backgrounds, personalities and experiences.  Because of this, conflict is the natural consequence.  How do we live in a world that is so opinionated?  As a spirit-filled Christ follower, how are we to be different?  Are we different?  How do we exercise humility in a world that promotes just the opposite?  

The foundation was laid in the Old Testament.  The cross bridged the gap, the church continues as the body of Christ today.  And one day, Jesus is coming again!

It happens all the time.  Another leader that was once greatly respected falls into a major scandal or a moral failure.  Why?  What is the root of the issue?  This is a message not just to leaders, but for everyone.  What can we do to prevent the collapse?

We have two choices.  We can build a bridge or we can build a wall.  Bridges connect, Walls divide.  Bridges bring people together, Walls separate.  

How is the foundation of your life?  Is it hardened or is it plowed and ready for growth?  What seeds are you sowing?  God is always at works and doing His part, but He also asks us to put a hand on the plow.  Maybe it's time to take a risk and till the soil.  It's time to start plowing!

Stuff.  We all have lots of it.  But, when it is all said and done, when this life is over, what will you have left?  What is of lasting value?

Last week, we focused on the health of the body and mind.  This week, we continue with the Spirit.  This year has been trying to say the least.  On top of the pandemic, we have now gone through a hurricane.  It's time for a little Spiritual Renourishment.

In an emotional year like this, it is easy to just give up in so many ways.  One of those ways is with our health.  But, the body is so closely associated with the mind, the emotions, and even our spiritual walk.  This week, Dr. Tim Boyett gave us some insight into the body, and keeping ourselves healthy and alive during this time.

It's a crazy year.  The words unprecedented and historical have been mentioned.  For many this year has been a challenge emotionally and physically, and even spiritually.  For the next three weeks we are going to focus on these three topics.  Our emotional, physical, and spiritual health.  This week we start with a foundation of God's Word.  The Bible is full of truth, and truth is much needed, especially in the times we are living in.
