Sunday Night Reflections

 A Few Thoughts from an Amazing Day...

  • I preached at First Christian Church of Bradenton this morning.
  • The message focused on "An Uncommon Place" Question, what makes a Christian University an uncommon place? 
  • Answer; Mission, Faculty who see themselves as mentors, not just educators, and a desire to see the Kingdom of God expand throughout the world! 
  • There are not too many Uncommon Places in our culture today!
  • The members of FCC Bradenton enjoy singing the old hymns with Gusto! 
  • I left home at 7:15 this morning and returned home at 6:20 this evening, needless to say, it was a long day.
  • Special treat about traveling to Bradenton, Lunch with some of my best friends.  I am always blessed when I spent time with Guthrie and Barbara.
  • I learned that one of the elders of the church I served in Anderson IN passed away last week, MIke thank you for your example of what a godly leader looks like! Well Done!
  • I take great comfort in the knowledge God is aware of our hurts, See Psalm 56:8 regarding how God handles our tears.
  • Lesson Learned from life group Friday evening; not all hotels put out the welcome mat for you.
  • Our students return to JUFL later this week. Sure has been quiet without their presence on campus.
  • This Florida boy is not liking this week's cold weather. Yep, turned the furnace on today!
  • Last week, I shared my word for the year is Courage; To keep me focused on my word I will post a courage quote each week in my Something to Chew on space - This week...
  • Something to Chew on; "It takes a great deal of bravery to stand up to our enemies, but just as much to stand up to our friends." ~ J.K. Rowling
