A Step
May 29, 2008
So what is your definition of success? I am reading the book "Pyramid of Success" by John Wooden and I am challenged from the get go. Everything our world and culture feeds us is not what God intends for us to build our lives on. Culture wants you to strive to be like someone else. Have you ever stopped to considered the fact that maybe Michael Jordan, Hannah Montana, Bill Gates, Kobe Bryant, Tom Cruise, Steve Jobs, etc... are not living their lives to emulate someone else.

being lonely
January 28, 2008
Alright, so here is the thought that has been stirring in me to right something about. This is not something i will have the answers to but i think you do.Have you ever walked into a room of people and not know anyone there? Or maybe you were invited to a party or gathering of sorts with a friend or family member, not knowing anyone else but the one you came with. I can remember growing up finding myself in these situations and feeling so ackward, hoping that at any moment it would be time to go. I wonder if anyone has ever felt that way about coming to church-maybe even you? So if that i ... read more
