I've recently been blessed with the opportunity to go to a conference based on the concept of the five Solas in my home town, called Sola2011. There were many amazing preachers from around the world there speaking on a variety of subjects. One sermon in particular was brought Daniel Mattioli, a pastor from France. It was about how little time we use for Christ. He suggested that if we all pitched in and actually acted like a true family no one in the church would ever go un-cared for. Our church has a usual attendance of about 200. If each one of us took the time to call 1 person in the church who is feeling down and lonely, and talk for 45 mins every week, this person would not feel lonely for long. How I need to learn to spend GOD's time wisely!
