Winning

Unfortunately, I can't hear the term "winning" and not think of Charlie Sheen.  Not because I think he is "winning" but because you couldn't get away from that story a while back.

  Have you ever stopped to think that the idea of success is different depending on your culture.  For some people it's stability.  For some people it is swag.  For some people it is making it out, for others it is staying put.  The problem is, almost all of the cultural pictures of success, or winning, are busted.  They are based in lies and false promises.  There is no gold at the end of the fake rainbow that many of us believe we are chasing to a happy ending.  If we let culture define success for us we are assured of losing.  In fact, the Bible says that in order for us to win, we have to be willing to be seen as losing.

So how do we win?  What is success?  How can we know if we are on the right path?

There are answers.  Come get some of them this Sunday at Miller Park Rec Center at 10:30 AM.
