We've all heard people say, "they don't go to church but they're a good person" or something similar. Francis Chan, through a video, reminded us that we don't get to decide if we are a "good person" or not - God does. He noted that the question shouldn't be, "Am I a good person", but we should be asking, "Am I good enough to get to heaven?"
We then noted how good a person we are when our lives are held up against the 10 Commandments. No one came out unscathed in that comparison! :-) We concluded that we are all in need of God's Grace.
By the time all was said and done, we were challenged to place a premium on Worship each and every Sunday to show our appreciation for God's GRACE.
On Sundays our lives tend to reflect how much we really value God's Grace by how often we attend Worship each month.
I hope that this series challenged everyone to re-consider what Worship is and what its about. Ultimately, I hope that each person will reflect on their Worship attendance and begin, if they don't already, to place a premium on Worship every week.
I must admit that this series was "preached to the choir" as we're having two great months in Worship attendance - in the middle of Summer!
