A New Year...and some big questions.

HAPPY NEW YEAR! It's hear...another year, 2012! Have you found yourself saying, "Wow, where did 2011 go?" I sure couldn't believe how fast the month of December went. Gone....but what lies ahead? What good things will be waiting for us?

What good will you experience in 2012? Now when you hear that question - do you perhaps answer - a raise, a new relationship (hopefully not if you are married :), or some new opportunities? But did you ever think that 2012 could hold something good that at first looks horrible?

Do you ever consider that 2012 could be a year of experiencing some pain...which maybe causes you to ask some big questions? So often people ask me, "How can a loving God allow suffering and pain?" This is a very good question....and in many ways I don't know the answer; however, starting this Sunday, January 8th I will be sharing a sermon series called, "Good Grief: figuring out how the goodness of God is present in times of suffering & pain."

What's the biggest question you think needs to be tackled (even if you don't think it can be answered)?
Post them here or email me....
