Uninvited guest

Life's major trials seldom send a memo telling us they're on the way. Instead, like an uninvited guest, they just show up, leaving us no choice but to let them in.

I read that today from Larry Osborne's book A contrarian's guide to knowing God. It is so true.

He goes on to say that the best way to be prepared for those uninvited guests is to be connected in a community.

I'm excited about connecting with The Point folks this Sunday night. More excited than I've been in a while. We're changing up our format for Sunday nights for the time being. We're going to do dinner together at the B and then have a discussion-based Bible study (instead of a sermon). This week we're going to begin looking at the life of Joseph (from Genesis). Everything still begins at 6 PM. See you there.
