ANNOUNCEMENTS:
COT: Honoring Data’s Dad, who lived to be 93 years old. We reflected on what our legacy as Dad’s can be. The 4 Ps:

– Pursuing Dads: we pursue our children’s hearts. Like Jesus pursued us in our sin, we have an example of the lengths God the Father went to pursue us.
– Present Dads: We are present emotionally, spiritually, mentally, and physically. We connect with our kids.
– Providing Dads: We provide space for our kids to be known and loved; we also provide financially.
– Protecting Dads: We protect our kids from the lies of this world as we point them to Jesus, we also protect them from unsafe people.

May we endeavor to prioritize our children and families as Data’s Dad did – retiring from his sales position to be spend more time with his kids!

COT:
Hall of Faith- Hebrews 11
It’s not a Hall of Fame, but a Hall of Faith. There’s alot of sports talk about who should be in various Halls of Fame. As a Reds fan I ponder Pete Rose and if he should be in the MLB Hall of Fame.
The Hall of Faith guys and gals are much better though. I am especially inspired by Abraham. God called him to leave his home and even sacrifice his son Isaac. How did Abraham respond? He obeyed in faith. What is God calling us to that might be difficult to do? “Now faith is confidence in what we hope for and assurance about what we do not see.” Let us go deeper in our faith in the Lord.
