    “Take Hold of Eternal Life” Amos 6:1-7; I Timothy 6:6-19; Luke 16:19-31 Proper 21-C, September 25, 2016 All three of the Scripture lessons read in our worship service this morning could easily remind us of that old adage: “You can’t have your cake and eat it too!” ...read more

Speaking for only myself, when I have come across anything good that gave me an advantage in life, I have both clung to and respected whomever, or whatever was willing to help ...read more
