Discovery: diet and exercise are the keys to losing weight.

Amazing right?  Yeah I guess that’s not news but why are people looking for new methods to get in shape?

I’ve been shopping for some golf clubs lately and I discovered that there are tons of used clubs in good condition.  Why?  Because golfers think they will do better with new clubs when the ones they had were probably just fine.

I’m the same way with golf discs (or “frisbees”).  I’m always looking for new discs when my old ones worked fine.

For many christians, the Word of God has become like a set of old golf clubs.  We sometimes look for answers everywhere but neglect this gold mine of truth that has worked so faithfully for us.

All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness, so that the man of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work.  -2nd Timothy 3:16,17

I love promise books.  In fact, I have so many different promise books on my desks my “friend” AJ Rankin keeps making fun of me.  These are books that are like topical indexes for the Bible.  If you need wisdom about finances you can find a collection of scriptures about finances in a promise book.  Or relationships or temptation or prayer, etc.  You should get a promise book, especially if you are a small group leader or minister.
