Praying for blessing and making the nations glad (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Dear SABC Family, When was the last time you prayed for Syria? When was thelast time you gave money to take care of orphans in Northern Uganda? When was the last time you broke down upon realizing that God’s people are suffering and dying in horrible ways in many countries overseas? I am so afraid for the American church. Our wealth hasmade our focus all wrong. We pray for blessings for ourselves and we forget that our blessing is so we might bless the world. WE have a new team headed to Kenya o
Serve and Protect (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Dear St. Andrews Family, In 1955, the LAPD introduced the new motto of their police academy: To Protect and Serve. A few years later this phrase made it to all the cars and since then it has been adopted by Police departments all over the country. To Protect and Serve.

Dear Family, Every Politician has to have a response to the immigration question. Perhaps it’s naïve, but I like to assume they are asking the right questions and trying to answer them with care. They are asking: How do we protect ourselves and still be compassionate? How do we help, but not get hurt? What is the best way to handle so many people streaming into our country longing for a better life? You may have an opinion on this issue, but I wonder how you have reached that conclusion. Did you
She clung to her: when staying is sacrificing everything (opens the original)
Read excerpt
There is nothing quite like those pictures that hang in office buildings with that one inspirational word. Challenge Motivate Excellence. Maybe they inspire you to be committed, . . . to make a difference. Maybe you are like me and find most of those posters pretty stupid. But maybe like me you do need reminders that 1) Jesus is that committed to you and 2) we do have the strength to be self-sacrificially committed to others. Ruth 1 gives us a glimpse of Ruth and her commitment to Naomi. I think
