1. Internet Hate

You are WRONG!

Ever notice how many people stand ready to point out your mistakes?

Particularly in this age of the internet and social media.

Challenge someone’s belief…

Post something with which they disagree…

And you will hear from them.

Probably in strong terms.

In the age where everyone is a publisher…

Everyone is also a critic.

How do you sort out the meaningful from the mindless?

The helpful from the hateful?

4. What kind of ship is your church?

Is your church…

A battleship?

A cruise ship?

Or an aircraft carrier?

Never thought of your church as a ship?
