Watching the Olympics has become a lot more than the thrill of competition; interviews and documentaries now invite us into the lives of the athletes. Almost every athlete speaks of the importance of remaining focused no matter what else may be happening around them. The same is true for the person who wants to follow Jesus – we have to remain focused on our mission and purpose. Only then will we experience the rich and satisfying life that is promised to those who follow Jesus. Sunday, August 5, 10 a.m.
