Weekend Updates and Links 10.26.14 Edition

We've had a nice weekend. The HOGS won a game...YAY! Clark took the ACT (again) (come ON 32!). And, Jim and Joshua went on a hunting trip with Jim's side of the family. I can't WAIT to share about that, but it's gonna take me a minute to get ALL THE WORDS in order. I'll post it tomorrow.

For now, hope everyone has had a great Sunday! We had a guest pastor in our church today. I am SO glad we were there. This Sunday, the college group led the worship service, and you know PEOPLE OF A CERTAIN AGE [JIM] get all nervous any time there is change. To that point, Jim's comment as we walked into church was "here we go!" And my comment was, "they have worked and practiced hard...so you better put on your big boy pants!" And it was great! And the gues pastor was a guy that we have known since COLLEGE but haven't seen in years...so BONUS! It was so fun visiting with him and his wife after the service.

Here are a few links, from the past week or two, that have made me laugh, cry...and THINK:

On being brave...Jesus is another word for brave.

What it means to be chosen...would we live each day differently if we really believed that we were CHOSEN BY GOD?

When you wonder if your ministry is too small to matter (SPOILER ALERT: it's not!), this by Lisa-Jo Baker.

Why you don't need a ton of friends...just a few you can count on...this from Kristen Strong.

Thought provoking post for when you feel like your church isn't meeting your needs...

"For God, who said, "Let there be light in the darkness," has made this light shine in our hearts so we could know the glory of God that is seen in the face of Jesus Christ. We now have this light shining in our hearts, but we ourselves are like fragile clay jars containing this great treasure." 2 Corinthians 4:6-7
