What is the church?
"It's a chosen gathering of unfinished people, still grappling with the selfishness of sin and the seduction of temptation, living in a fallen world where there is deception and dysfunction all around. There's nothing comfortable or easy in this plan. PD Tripp

"Are you saying, 'But I can't be expected to live a sanctified life in my present circumstances; I have no time for prayer or Bible study right now; besides, my opportunity for battle hasn't come yet, but when it does, of course I will be ready"? No, you will not
Oswald Chambers

"What I need is God's surgical procedure--His use of external circumstances to bring about internal purification."
Oswald Chambers

Sometimes we get frustrated with situations we are going through. More than likely we need to be going through them!!

@Showtyme_33 Maybe, but Conijito's in Milwaukee is pretty darn good.

James 1:27
"Religion that is pure and undefiled before God, the Father, is this: to visit orphans and widows in their affliction, and to keep oneself unstained from the world."

Unstained from the world.....how we doing with that? 🤔😔🙏

Sweet Retreat Campfire Service
Join us as we continue in 1 John this evening.
The song goes, "They will know we are Christian's by our love."

Not how is your neighbor loving you. Not how is your spouse loving you. How are you loving people?
How are you doing with that?
😊

Psalm 139:14-15(a)
For you formed my inward parts; you knitted me together in my mother's womb. I praise you, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made.

God doesn't make mistakes. He knows you intimately, better than even yourself. Rest in that this morning.

The Supreme Court will be hearing this case this week.
Pray for wisdom and favor!

"Be careful that you don't become a hypocrite by spending all your time trying to get others right with God before you worship Him yourself."
Oswald Chambers

Oh, how convicting this can be. Sadly, I can see myself in this quote. Forgive me, Lord.

Oswald Chambers
"Over and over again, we try to be amateur providences in someone's life. You may often have to watch Jesus Christ wreck a life before he saves it."

One of the things I have been praying for is to draw closer to God. He would answer that prayer clearly. We attended a marriage retreat this weekend and what I heard during the retreat….”The way to grow closer to me (God) is to draw closer to your wife and to love her better.”

You are more than a coach.
You’re a leader.
A guide.
A mentor.

Your athletes look up to you for guidance in every area of life—physical, mental, emotional, relational, financial and spiritual. But, you can’t give what you don’t already have.

Psalm 95:6-7
"Oh come, let us worship and bow down; let us kneel before the Lord, our Maker! For He is our God, and we are the people of His pasture, and the sheep of His hand."

Our Maker
Our God
Our Shepherd
Our Lord

Praise the Lord!!

We need to applaud this young man's humbleness, awareness, and vulnerability. This probably wasn't easy to do and it is more prevalent in sports, and life, than we know.
