THOUGHT

Important to note that from the book UnChristian “outsiders” are those not in the church, “young Christians” are those in the church across America and the survey was done for young adults ages 16-29. The discussion was interesting....one of the discussion questions was "what is your church/Crossroads known for in the community? Two responses, Bible teaching......and comfy chairs. And I'm glad for both!

Next week: Are Christians hypocritical? More than half of you said, yes.
And it's Tyler's birthday next week too.........

Bears or Colts? Bird on a perch, fish outa water, cavalier, cavalier, cavalier.
