Dr. Phil, the popular TV psychologist is known for leaning toward his troubled guest to ask the question "so, how is that working for you?" I would like to ask you that question this Sunday. So, how is that working for you? All the disciplines. All the bible studies. All the church attendance. Praying. Giving. So, how is it working for you? Are you any happier? Holier? Closer to God? More affective? So, how is it working for you? The Pharisees (in Mark 2:18-27) questions Jesus as to why his disciples don't fast, and, why they were picking grain from a field on the Sabbath. Jesus turns the question on them. So, why do YOU do what you do? Why do you fast? Why do you not pick grain on the Sabbath? It is working? Do you know why are you doing it?
Lots of questions to ask this Sunday and hopefully some refreshing answers.
I sure look forward to worshipping with you this Sunday.
Pastor Mitch
