And let us not neglect our meeting together, as some people do, but encourage one another, especially now that the day of his return is drawing near. Hebrews 10:25 NLT<\/span><\/p>\n

I attended my first connect group meeting at our church for the fall semester last night. It was good. It was a men’s only meeting studying Larry Stockstill’s Model Man<\/a>. The message was very simple: Tell the truth. Keep your word. Pay your bills. It seems a bit sad that we need to hear a message so simple these days. Even sadder is that next week we talk about purity and that’s a message needed even more.<\/p>\n

It was the first of a six-week set of meetings. The book is very simple. I read it in one sitting. We watched a video then had a discussion. All of it was great. It was great to connect with other Christians, especially other men. It was great to get out of the house. It only lasted an hour but I know it will make a difference in my week.<\/p>\n

It’s not too late to join a group. Check out the possibilities.\u00a0<\/a>\u00a0You can fit in an hour in your week. Especially one that will really make a difference. Don’t tell me there’s not an hour in front of the TV you can’t give up.<\/p>\n
