Scripture vs Brad Cooper

If you attend NewSpring Church, you know who Brad Cooper is (student pastor for Anderson campus). Check out this video, and see if Brad's "truths" line up with God's Word listed below.

SCRIPTURES:

Let me just point out that God's Word gives a clear definition of sin:

1 John 3:4 (New International Version)

4Everyone who sins breaks the law; in fact, sin is lawlessness.

Weight Loss Update & Other Stuff

Sorry I haven't updated lately. My husband and I have lost our financial aid funding for summer, so we are now both out of school and looking for jobs. Any ideas welcome?!

I am now at 190.6 lbs, trying to stay on track! I had another sinus infection and have pulled a muscle in my elbow somehow. That makes workouts difficult, but I'm better now and must get back to the daily grind.

Also we felt God leading us away from NewSpring Church, so we are seeking God's wisdom and guidance for us in where to go from here.

As always, keep the emails, comments, and prayers coming!

Matthew 6:25-34 (New International Version)

Do Not Worry
25"Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more important than food, and the body more important than clothes? 26Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they? 27Who of you by worrying can add a single hour to his life?

28"And why do you worry about clothes? See how the lilies of the field grow. They do not labor or spin. 29Yet I tell you that not even Solomon in all his splendor was dressed like one of these. 30If that is how God clothes the grass of the field, which is here today and tomorrow is thrown into the fire, will he not much more clothe you, O you of little faith? 31So do not worry, saying, 'What shall we eat?' or 'What shall we drink?' or 'What shall we wear?' 32For the pagans run after all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you need them. 33But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well. 34Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own.
