My friends, if you see a temptation coming, and you can avoid it, run! Don’t wait around, don’t play around, run. You drop a match in your lap, you don’t sit there and wonder how long it can sit there before it burns you. You get rid of it. …

I spent some time this week looking on the computer at actual excuses people use, or have used, or might someday use, to miss church. Here are a few: I missed church because the little guy had a cold. The whole family had to stay home to blow his nose! - I missed church last Sunday because there
