    This is part 1 of my 5 week series on what the church needs to look like in the emerging culture. This looks specifically at what the early church looked like, and what those practices can look like in our world.

    Many people ask the question, "Why is life unfair?" The Psalmist in the 73 Psalm, feels the same way. How do we answer this question?

    Why Do The Wicked Prosper? Life is unfair. There are so many things about life that don’t make sense. I had a great childhood. My father was a police officer here in Nashville.

    This message is the first in a series that looks at diseases that plague the Church - this message looks at the attitude ’Pastor Feed Me’ and encourages listeners to learn to feed themselves!
