I was watching a video connected with the explore God series and one of the statements was about how we can drift from relationship into religion. We all need to get back to the beginning at times to refresh our relationship.

I am really looking forward to this Explore God series and know this: this series isn't just for people who are disconnected or searching. If you have been following God for years, I think this series will give you insight and challenges as well. Also some of the questions are big issues that we all deal with and ponder at times. As we talked about last month, this is also a great opportunity to let God work in & through you. If you bring someone with you to church that is exploring, you will see things in a whole new perspective and you can have the opportunity to help someone else find God.

Be praying today, this week, and all this month for people (and even yourself) to have open hearts and minds to explore & experience God.
