I remember when Rick Warren’s book Purpose Driven Life bounced to popularity. In 2005, a survey of American pastors and ministers conducted by George Barna asked Christian leaders to identify what books were the most influential on their lives and ministries. The Purpose Driven Life was the most frequent response. And The Purpose Driven Church,
One of the great privileges the Lord has provided me is to serve people as a Christian mediator (sometimes arbitrator and sometimes coach). I just finished a full day mediation with Godly people who were able to work through difficult “stuff” and come to a reconciling resolution of both substantive and relational conflict issues. I

In one of my small groups, we have a member who was diagnosed with a cancer that is terribly ominous and which has taken her for short stints out-of-country and for 5 months away from home in treatment in another state.
