Man in the Mirror

A few selected Questions from the study I am leading.....

If the Rat Race is an unwinnable race, why do you think so many men run in it? What are they trying to accomplish?

Wouldn’t we all like the models for our children to be in the sacrifices and contributions of famous scientists, artists, thinkers, missionaries, statesmen, builders, and other heroes and saints?

When we choose the rat race, fracture lines soon appear in our relationships, and crumbling is not far behind. Unfortunately, all too often, in pursuit of the good life, most men leave a trail of broken relationships. Can you relate?

The secret of knowing something well is to keep “looking at the fish”. What kind of commitment would you be willing to make to self examination in terms of time and effort?

As a lawyer or accountant is no better than the effort he puts into keeping up with his profession, so is the Christian no better than the efforts he puts into self examination of life’s big questions. Are you putting in the effort?
