Your salvation is not about you. It is about God. Now maybe you're not wealthy. Maybe money is not the issue for you. I invite you to close your eyes for a secondand think.

In the business world I lived in, When someone said the left hand doesn't knowwhat the right hand is doing, that was not a good thing. That was talking about things falling apartpretty quickly.

In his arms, he holds an infant, and he says, "Be likethis." Innocent, and dependent upon one another, unstained by theworld; and open to being formed. Be like this. Curious seekers with BIG emotions. Be creative and adaptable; imitating me. Someone you cantrust. Welcome the vulnerable into your midst, and be like them. For the leader among you is …

Are you beset with gloom? Gloomy because someone like me refuses to accept your dehumanizingdream, crushing his nose for an answer? Oh well, still I rise.

And you might b…

For me, the third grade was probably one of the best times of my life. I could pick out my own Umbro shorts, scrunchie my own ponytail, And ride my bike freely around the neighborhood from sun up to dinner time, getting into some good and maybe not-so-good trouble with the other kids who lived nearby. I learned to cook, spent unnumbered hours creat…

And then what happened is as many of you know, I had a sortof a conversion experience when I was 20 and I realized, oh gosh,dang, I do believe in God. This is real that I believe in God.

Unity means a loss of merit or a loss of dignit…

Now that this is my last Sunday with you, it's time for me to tell you my real name, because in so many ways, our name defines us, roots us in this world, gives us our identity. My real name isn't the name that my parents put on my birth certificate and that I was called at my baptism. It's the name my grandmother gave me when I was born. My father…
