I had a great experience in Ethiopia this past week. It is amazing how you can start the day in San Francisco and in 22 hours arrive on the other side of the earth. Dr. Tarr was a terrific host and took good care of me. The graduation ceremony for the Bible School went well and the church services on Sunday were a blessing. Visiting a land where one in five hundred people own a car and the average income across the country is one dollar a day, it definitely puts life in a different perspective. We have much to be grateful for. The Ethiopian people are beautiful and gracious and I would love to return there again.
This Sunday begins a summer series in the wisdom of the Proverbs. Finding Favor is this week's theme from Proverbs 3. I am looking forward to growing with you as we study God's Word and seek His presence.
Proverbs 3:3 "Let love and faithfulness never leave you; bind them around your neck, write them on the tablet of your heart."
Men . . . it's not too late to get in on the retreat this next weekend. It will provide a wonderful opportunity to grow in relationship with the Lord and build bonds with men who will be an encouragement to you in the days ahead.
Looking forward to seeing you!
