Sometimes we forget that “winning in life” is NOT the goal of a Christian. By any tangible human measure, Jesus did not win. He was crucified and he died. That is definitely not winning.

We begin a sermon series on the book of James. We begin with chapter one where we hear practical advice about how to navigate troubles in our lives and how listening helps us all.

We hear another song from the radio this week. This time from Motown Records. Marvin Gaye’s What’s Going On reminds to ask the question to those around us before we get too far down the road.
We continue in our KCLC Radio sermon series. Today the last song ever released by The Beatles. The song says a lot about the lives we all lead and the world we live in.
