If you been a Christian for any time you would have heard of 2 Timothy 4:2: preach the word; be ready in season and out of season; correct, rebuke, and exhort, with great patience and instruction.
Jimmy’s thoughts are timely, as our congregation is going through Proverbs on Sunday mornings. It’s also a good reminder in an election year in the good ol’ US of A, especially.
May we learn how to pick our battles and answer wisely.

I have been thinking about the topic of not answering a fool.
We are looking for deacons all the time. I work with our deacons specifically to help make their work cohesive (not micromanage. I am way too engaged in several areas to do that!) More help is always needed and wanted. Having godly men and their wives is always great, and helping them grow is even better.
I joked around with one of our deacons about how he could grow as a teacher, and he said, “That’s definitely not my calling!” Today, he has taken on a teaching role at work and is about to help launch our new Young Adults ministry as our main teacher! And he’s the one who stepped up!
Pray for specific servants for the church. God raises them up in amazing ways.

Do we truly love the Lord our God with all our hearts, souls, minds, and strengths? Maybe I can help with the mind part, at least! This is Daniel M. Klem, apparent poet, reluctant yet passionate Disciple (Peter?), and foolish man attempting to understand theology!
