    That no one except God is perfect but we don’t want people to think we are “that bad.” We pose. We pretend. We put on our plastic masks.

    DIRECTION SIGNS In my time with the children a few weeks ago I spoke with them about road signs. As I prepared this message, I thought about how we have become a nation of signs: Some of them are helpful and some are not.

    WHEN GOD FORGIVES, HE FORGETS How different God’s pardon is from ours! So often we forgive as did the mother of the little girl who had been good a whole week, and asked mother for a favor. "I know," was the answer, "that you have been good all this week, but you know you were bad last week." ...read more
