We'd would sure love for everything to work out just like we plan. Unfortunately that pretty much never happens. How we react to people who threaten to disrupt our plans says a lot about what we really value.

Have you ever thought, “What is wrong with people?” Why do people do ridiculous and even self-destructive things? Maybe, to answer that question, we should ask ourselves, “What’s wrong with us?” We’re not exempt from making bad, even sinful, choices. Sin, no matter how we rationalize it, will always be a dead end. What is going on in our minds we deliberately head toward a dead end?

We like to think of fear as healthy and sensible, after all it keeps most of us from owning pet snakes and bungee-jumping. But "Do not fear" is the most repeated command in scripture. Why? What is so dangerous about fear?

How deeply do we really care about someone else's salvation. I'd venture to guess we say we'd do just about anything. However, when the roadblocks of our preferences, comfort and even traditions are in the way of spreading Christ, we're much less willing. How can we change that?

A recent study found that a whopping 1% of Christians were actively sharing their faith. That's not going to get the job done. We know we should evangelize. We don't. What do we do about it?

When suspicion, offense and pessimism enter church life - the result is always destructive. The job of encouragement is hard work and crucial to church life and growth.
