just a thought to ponder..

We started small groups tonight at CSI, and I'm in a group that's going through a book called "Jesus Wants to Save Christians". I don't know much about the book but I'm pretty excited to get started! I've heard from a couple people that it's really good and really makes you think. For what i do know is that the book relates Exodus to today's life (I'm not 100% sure on that part but I think so..). We read through the intro and the first chapter tonight and it was pretty interesting. It talked about how even the first family was corrupt. This family moved from Eden; the most indescribable place ever to be on earth. They moved eastward and started cities, and eventually those cities became corrupt. Then the chapter went on to mention how we go through all these things at airports ("random" security checks, metal detectors, "The Wand" etc..) but we think nothing of it. We don't even complain because it's for our safety and we need to catch our plane anyway. Then later we go on and listen to the tv and all it is telling us is about the good,or bad.. things going on throughout the world. Do you ever realize how we never really think anything of this? It's kind of outrageous come to think of it..
Well anyway, I'm really excited to see what else God has stored for me in this book!
