Quotation of the Week

Salvation is a call to be a missionary. The following statement can’t biblically exist in the minds of Christians: “God has called me to salvation but not to missions.” The call to a relationship with the king is also a call to tell the world about this same king! And, this should make us extremely joyful. After all, thank God that there is more to being a Christian than getting ‘saved,’ sitting on our blessed assurances on padded pews, going to a bunch of potluck dinners, waiting on the Rapture Bus to swoop down and pick us all up to the “good ol’ by-and-by”.

First Day Back After Vacation

There are few days in my life when I am more pathetic than the first day back to work after vacation. My personal pity party is quite something to behold.

It took a comic strip to give me that perspective this morning.
