		<description><![CDATA[The OT uses words like sojourners or wanderers as precursors to the NT words like aliens, foreigners, strangers, or ambassadors. All these words describe that a Christian’s life is transitory. In other words, we are passing through this life with a sense of purpose, duty, passion, and responsibility for the mission of God. The foundation [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[From my friend Tim Stevens People leave churches every day&#8230;sometimes even when they&#8217;ve been attending that church for years or even decades. But for some reason&#8211;a time comes when they decide they need to go somewhere else. Some of those reasons are good. Some of those reasons are bad.

		<description><![CDATA[To “honor” means to ascribe worth to a person and/or give recognition of another’s worth. In 1776, colonists signed their names to a radical document that would change the world, the Declaration of Independence, knowing that they would probably give their lives because they put their names on this document. The final sentence says this, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Without shocking the weasel out of you, I believe that for many &#8220;Christians&#8221; and churches, God is not enough.  While we openly admit and verbalize that God is enough, we live like He really isn&#8217;t. God has a special place in his heart for the Israelite nation and it very evident in scriptures, in both [...]]]></description>
