The Original Mud Puppy

Matthew 5:14-15

At our Tuesday night Men’s Group the topic came up about being a lighthouse at work vs. taking a maglight and shoving it down someone’s throat. It’s really not a hard concept to embrace. In one case you draw people to you, in the other you push them away. The main thing to remember is that even though you might feel like people aren’t taking notice, there is always someone watching. I’ve been caught off guard twice this year by people at work mentioning something about my faith when I didn’t even know they knew—because I had never talked to them about it personally. The latest was this email I received from someone in another department:

Hi Russell

This is not work related but I have a question for you. Where does the church you go to have their services? I think I heard that is is your dad that is the pastor there? Is this true? The last I knew the services were being held at the Civic Auditorium in Tecumseh. Are they still there? I am interested in checking it out. I would like to bring my four year old daughter also, is there child care? I received a postcard in the mail a couple of weeks ago and I misplaced it. Was that Jason’s picture on the front? The face looked familiar :)

Please let me know times and days of services.

Thank you

You don’t have to use a bullhorn to get attention.
