		<description><![CDATA[Lying was a serious problem for the partriarchs:

-Abraham lied about his wife Sarah (Genesis 12:10-20).
-Isaac, Abraham's son, lied about his wife Rebekah (Genesis 26:6-11).
-Jacob, Isaac's son, lied to his father being prompted by his mother (Genesis 27).
-The sons of Jacob lied to their father about their brother Joseph (Genesis 37:29-36).

And this list doesn't even cover half the lies in this family!

		<description><![CDATA[If you’re bored with Christianity, I want you to stop and think about this. Maybe you think boredom is just the way it is supposed to be. It’s not. It is a symptom of a critical condition. So like any good doctor would do, I’m going to give it to you straight. If you’re bored with Christianity, what that indicates is that Christ is no longer in the center of your life! That’s right, and as you might have guessed, the consequences of that are serious. Open your eyes to what your Savior did for you, crucify self, and let Christ take hold of the reigns. Do that and I can promise you… you’ll never be bored again!

		<description><![CDATA[This world offers a wide variety of things that vie for our attention: homes, cars, clothes, music, sports, careers, etc. While many of these things are not what we would typically classify as “ungodly”, these things can act as thorns (or weeds) by choking out our spiritual life so that we become unfruitful. It’s very easy to be consumed by these things (in the same way that weeds can easily consume a lawn). We can become so busy chasing after the world that we have little energy or enthusiasm left for God.

		<description><![CDATA[How can we know whether we have “set our minds on things above and not on things on the earth?” We can start by looking in our closet. While it may be true that “the clothes don’t make the man” they often do say a lot about him (or her). So what does your wardrobe say about you?
