"R.S.V.P."
Isaiah 55:1-9
There’s a difference between sin and temptation. Jesus was tempted yet was without sin. It’s possible. There’s a difference between feeling hungry and eating. Between yawning and lying down to sleep. Between being ap-proached by a door-to-door salesperson and saying, “No thanks.”

"O the games People play, Now"
Philippians 3:17–4:1
Who are you imitating? From whom are you learning what it means to live as a follower of Jesus in this messed-up world? Is it your spouse, who always seems to be five steps ahead of you spiritually? Do you have a Christian friend whose faith feels more mature? Are you soaking up the wisdom of fellow small-group members? Are you following the pattern of a faith-filled parent? Or are you simply asking yourself at every turn, “What would Pastor do?”
