Good morning. I hope your weekend provided rest, relaxation, and spiritual growth and challenge. Challenge? Did someone say challenge? It must be Monday morning.
Before I get to my scrambled eggs and coffee, let me share a few articles I found challenging:
Trump and Political Correctness
This article from David Murray does a great job of helping us think through Donald Trump and the line between “PC” and rudeness.
Question: Trump: rude, or just not politically correct?
High Minimum Wage
Does a high minimum wage really work? This explanation of one company paying all workers $70K per year helps look at the difficulties a high minimum wage can present.
Question: Are all seemingly beneficial ideas good ones?
Leading Change
This article challenges pastors, but can challenge anyone in leadership. Do some work and connect the dots.
Question: If you lead, what are the easiest changes to make?
Community Conquers
Can Christian community conquer culture? This article argues not only that it can, but that it should.
Question: Does this challenge how you view the local church?
