To make it possible for everyone to attend church this Sunday, we are going to have a special "No Excuse Sunday": Cots will be placed in the foyer for those who say, "Sunday is my only day to sleep in." There will be a special section with lounge chairs for those who feel that our pews are too hard. Eye drops will be available for those with tired eyes from watching TV late Saturday night. We will have steel helmets for those who say, "The roof would cave in if I ever came to church." Blankets will be furnished for those who think the church is too cold, and fans for those who say it is too hot. Scorecards will be available for those who wish to list the hypocrites present. Relatives and friends will be in attendance for those who can't go to church and cook dinner, too. We will distribute "Stamp Out Stewardship" buttons for those that feel the church is always asking for money. One section will be devoted to trees and grass for those who like to seek God in nature. Doctors and nurses will be in attendance for those who plan to be sick on Sunday. The sanctuary will be decorated with both Christmas poinsettias and Easter lilies for those who never have seen the church without them. We will provide hearing aids for those who can't hear the preacher and cotton wool for those who think he's too loud! Hope to see you there!

Questions looking for Answers
Needing something to think about? How about these three questions: What makes God glad? What makes God sad? and you got it...what makes God mad? Have you ever really dealt with these questions and pondered the answer or answers to each? What about looking them up in the Bible? What a journey that would be, to read the scriptures attempting to find the answer to these questions! And for those of you out there who can't find your Bible or don't own a Bible...go ahead...you know you want to..."google" these quesitons and see what you come up with! However, you approach these three questions know that God has provided us with the answers and prompts us to dig for such knowledge like lost jewels! Which question effects you the most? Will it effect you enough to do something about it? I mean if you knew you were doing something that made God sad or mad...would it cause you to reconsider that action, that behavior, that attitude or that addiction? For more on this subject check out the latest sermon series I am currently preaching at www.peopleschurchofgod.com
