Good morning. Let’s begin this Sunday as we always do, with a couple Bible verses. Wait, we’ve never done that? I guess there’s a first time for everything! The Gospel of Matthew - no word on whether his fellow apostles called him Matt, M-Dog or something else - contains a few verses about the difference between building a house on rock versus sand.
24 “Therefore everyone who hears these words of mine and puts them into practice is like a wise man who built his house on the rock. 25 The rain came down, the streams rose, and the winds blew and beat against that house; yet it did not fall, because it had its foundation on the rock.
