"Deep"

A good friend of mine--who's not a member of LHC--emailed me Tuesday and said that he is coming to our Easter celebration this weekend because he's invited a friend who doesn't know Christ.

A couple of things in that email struck me:

1. What a compliment that he's bringing his friend to LHC.
2. What a selfless act that he's putting his friend's spiritual need in front of his own desire to attend his church on Easter.

Forget attending the service he wants to attend--he's going to a different church altogether so that he can help point his friend to the love of Christ.

That might be the "deepest", most spiritually mature thing I've seen in a long time.

  1. We all need churches full of this kind of "maturity". Hope Easter was incredible and your getting lots of rest today.
