Let me tell you the brother talked for 3 hours and the children listened and could have listened for another 3 hours. A 10 year old got up and said "that was 3 hours, wow that went fast". Dude we talked about what decisions we have to make in our own lives. Hutch,

I find myself wanting to interact with this post while at the same time pondering my own selfishness and shallow spirituality.

I’ll admit too that my love for God has not yet been perfected. I pray that God continues to perfect His love in all of us.

Yesterday, a brother taught us from Matthew 22 concerning the great commandment. Of course, Jesus couldn't stop at just one! He not only said the first and great commandment was to love God, but that the second commandment, which was like the first, was to love our neighbors as ourselves. John said that we don't love God if we don't demonstrate our love to other (not just saying we love someone or even feeling deeply about someone). I'll admit that I often don't love God... I don't want to admit that, but it is obvious in the way that I live my life because I don't always demonstrate love towards other people. -Alan Lionel,

Do you know if Dave and Becky are still in Texas? Do you know if they have any more stops in Texas before returning home? Lionel-

Would that my theory would turn into practice, even those who diligently speak of making disciples seem to have a goal that is far removed from what Christ had in mind…what a blessing to come into contact with men like Dave Black, Jon Zens and Alan Knox who are striving to teach it straight and to be an example to us as they endeavor to follow Christ as disciples.

Do you know if Dave and Becky are still in Texas? Do you know if they have any more stops in Texas before returning home?
