“What are you doing personally to make your church family more warm and loving? There are many people in your community who are looking for love and a place to belong.

“Many people are driven by materialism. Their desire to acquire becomes the whole goal of their lives.

Possessions only provide temporary happiness. Because things do not change, we eventually become bored with them and then want newer, bigger, better versions.”
