Discipleship:
Light
I love cran-grape juice. Which is odd because I
don’t particularly care for cranberry or grape juice alone. But
when you put them together, the result is the perfect combination
of sweetness and tartness.
Last week, Melissa asked me to pick up a few
things from HEB on my way home from the office. Cran-grape juice
wasn’t on the list, but it somehow found its way in the basket.
When I got home, I poured some into a glass and got ready for that
familiar flavor. After the first swallow, I knew something was
dreadfully wrong. It was then that I noticed a word on the label
that had somehow escaped my attention at the grocery store. Light!

What is your idea of a "Church"?
Sometimes our understanding of certain things is colored by what
we've been taught in the past or by a perception which has been
shaped by culture. When people think of "church," they
may be thinking of a building or a denomination or even an
association or club of some kind. But none of these are what the
Bible means by the term "church."
A Bible Definition
The term "church" itself does not neccessairly have a
religious connotation. It is used in Acts 19, for example, to
describe; an assembly in a city - a "town meeting." But
Jesus Christ invested the term with rich spiritual meaning when He
said, "I will build My church and the gates of Hades will not
overpower it" (Matthew 16:18).
