Q: what is “the fog” that you battle in your pursuit of Christ?
We need to return ALL that ‘junk’… that is, go to the person or people where the words, attitude or behavior was ‘unwrapped’ and ask for forgiveness.
Q: Is Christmas a time of “extravagant wastefulness” for you?
You were saved by faith in God, who treats us much better than we deserve. This is God's gift to you, and not anything you have done on your own. 9 It isn't something you have earned, so there is nothing you can brag about. 10 God planned for us to do good things and to live as he has always wanted us to live. This is why he sent Christ to make us what we are. Ephesians 2:8-10
We call ‘church’ a service - seems obvious then, that serving should be a main function of who we are & what we do.
God is bigger & better than just a ‘church Santa Claus!’
Jesus wants ALL to be saved! Religious, pagan, rich, poor, young, old… ANYONE.
We talk a lot about who we are, what we do and what needs to change in our church, our family, our community & our world. But, are we part of the solution to the problems that we see?
