Why is it so important for Christians to be sober-minded? God made alcohol, didn’t He? Wouldn’t he want us to have a little fun? Well, your mind is an important tool, and God doesn’t want you to give yourself over to things that can alter your thinking and your judgment. Drinking can greatly affect both of those. Pastor Mark teaches today that you should treat your body like a temple of the Holy Spirit, and that treatment begins with your mind. Part of being sober-minded means that you are always ready to do the work of ministry when duty calls. It’s not a nine-to-five kind of job, it’s a lifelong and never-ending commission.
