On this day when we pause to honor the men and women who have given their lives in military service, take a few minutes to think about this quote:
“THERE ARE RISKS AND COSTS TO A PLAN OF ACTION, BUT THEY ARE FAR LESS THAN THE LONG-RANGE RISKS AND COSTS OF COMFORTABLE INACTION.”
— John F. Kennedy, 35th President of the United States
This truth applies to every area of our lives – and to every area of our churches. As you rest and rejuvenate today, think about where you are leaning toward comfortable inaction and what you need to do to get ready for a summer of effective ACTION!
