Working from the Right Scorecard 7: Living Above Mediocrity - Revelation 3:14-22

One thing that drew me to my wife when I first met her was her zeal. She didn’t do anything half-heartedly. She was all in, whether playing a game, if she was talking, or when it came to her faith. It was her enthusiasm, her energy, her conviction, her dedication. There was nothing half-hearted.Today is the last Sunday we'll be looking at what I called "Working from the Right Scorecard". We've been walking through Revalation 2 and 3, where Jesus speaks to seven different churches in a given time and place. In it he praises them, and in it he corrects them. From that we get a sense of what heaven’s scorecard is.Sometimes we find ourselves pursuing things that come from the world. But it is so much better to pursue the things that are on the heart of God.Today we come to the last of the seven, the church of Laodicea, where he speaks the strongest words of correction, but he also speaks the most tenderly to draw them. Both are there, and it’s really quite something.Preacher: Bill DyckExtra reading: Psalm 86:8-13
