King David yielded to temptation the...

If you’ve ever flown on an airline and been through the safety demonstration you know one of the first things they say is this … “In case of emergency oxygen masks will drop. Place it over your nose and mouth. Put yours on first before helping anyone else.” Why do they say that? Because, if you aren’t healthy - it’s going to be hard to help anyone else.These are challenging and chaotic days.

We launched the Never Quit Monday Night Men’s Intensive with this: “Be on your guard; stand firm in the faith; be courageous; be strong.” 1 Corinthians 16:13 This translates:“Remember to stay alert…”“Keep your eyes open…” In other words, stay focused. What does “focus” look like in a chaotic world? A thousand things today could distract us – another thousand could make us worried, concerned, even fearful. In the midst of a crisis, Paul admonished his friends, “Don’t keep on worrying about anything, but in everything pray! Then God’s peace will guard you like a sentinel—your heart and mind secured" (Philippians 4:6, my paraphrase). Jesus promised this:...
