"So we as pastors would exhort you all to flee covetousness. Topple all your idols. “Count everything as loss because of the surpassing worth of knowing Christ.” Be in the word every day. But also find those who live this way and “keep your eyes on them.” What you will see, if you look carefully, is the power and the beauty of Christ. This sight will satisfy your soul. And your satisfied soul will keep you from stealing and lying. And your life will make God look supremely valuable. " - J. Piper

Just a blog question? how long does it normally take for video's to upload? It seems to be taking me forever, and I was wondering if I need to do something else besides just click on the film icon.
Thanks,
Connie
