Polishing Boots

Send us Fan MailThere's a song from my childhood that goes, "Little drops of rain, little grains of sand, make the mighty ocean and the pleasant land." It's to remind us that we should never discount the littlest of things in our lives or world because they can make a big effect. How often have we heard phrases about "changing the world." But change always starts with one thing. Sometimes one very small thing. It reminds me of a good friend of mine who came to lead a troubled congregation. He was able to make a positive effect quite quickly. One day I asked him what his strategy was that allowed him to bring healing to this large congregation. He said simply, "One sermon at a time, one funeral at a time, one conversation at a time..." This week I share with you an observation and my hope for a meaningful change...Thanks for listening.
