They will involve several people from both the Old and New Testaments. Here we are enjoying the beauty of summer once more in our lives. Some of you are out soaking up the warm rays of the sun shining down, while others are cleaning out the house from a long winter stay. The itch for change comes to the forefront of our lives often in these months as our energy levels increase and we are able to truly look at what is all around us. The need for change can overwhelm us to reach out to the latest and greatest quick fix only to fall short of our goal. The truth is we must go deeper in our understanding of God and the salvation we receive through Jesus Christ.
