I believe that the Church in America is suffering because too many of us are not growing. We are not allowing God to speak to our lives. We are holding onto sin and attitudes that are not biblical, and we go to church every week, we hear a good message and we go home!!

Listen up church - I have been watching a TV show for 12 years. I watch it every week. It’s one of my very favorite shows, it’s called ER - as how about doctors and nurses serving in a Chicago hospital - I’ve watched it for 12 years, but I am no closer to being a doctor than when I started... I can’t cut anyone open, even though I’ve seen it done every week... The same is true about your spiritual life. It’s possible to come here and not grow!!

So what do we do?? We have to learn to feed ourselves...
