On Lent
Before starting any fast whether it be for lent or personal reverence make sure to study up on how Jesus calls us to fast…

I’m excited to hear the upcoming talks…
1. Christian growth through prayer
2. Christian growth through study
3. Christian action
…which are staples of the Walk To Emmaus/Chrysalis script.

Ephesians 6:19-20
Pray also for me, that whenever I open my mouth, words may be given me so that I will fearlessly make known the mystery of the gospel, for which I am an ambassador in chains. Pray that I may declare it fearlessly, as I should.
“Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old has passed...”

Eight Lessons from the life and work of Jack LaLanne
He bootstrapped himself. A scrawny little kid at 15, he decided to change who he was and how he was perceived, and then he did. The deciding was as important as the doing.
