Taxes. Death. Judgment.

Another tax season is officially coming to a close.  You may have heard it said, "The only two certainties in life are death and taxes." Another certainty is that we will all face the creator God as our judge.  "Just as man is destined to die once, and after that to face judgment" (Hebrews 9:27).  This rocked my world as a kid growing up.  I knew there is heaven and I knew there is hell.

One City, One Gospel

"But Nineveh has more than a hundred and twenty thousand people who cannot tell their right from their left, and many cattle as well. Should I not be concerned about that great city!" (Jonah 4:11)

The murder rate in Chicago ranks it as one of highest of any city in the nation.  Each day more people are killed in Chicago than in Afghanistan.  The city has been named "Chi-raq" due to the number of people killed.

Last Friday night I attended a worship time and concert of prayer for the city of Chicago with my good friend and dad.  Three pastors from area churches led the time.  It was a great to focus on the need to show the love of Jesus Christ to the people in Chicago and proclaim the hope of the Gospel.  Join me in praying for God to work in the city of Chicago!
