When I travel I have to admit that I am a creature of habit. When I find a good place to stay or eat I really am inclined to make that my destination every time I am in the area. Today was no exception. When I arrived at my hotel I remembered just exactly why it is that I love that place. The people are nice, the place is clean and everyone treats you like you are their number one priority.
What if the church was truly that way? I know we give a lot of lip service to being that way but what if we were truly making people a priority? Would people be drawn to us just like I am drawn to places that make me feel special?
My prayer is that at Crossroads we will continue to let people know we truly care……

Right on, Randy. Along the same line of thought, this reminds me of something that I pondered once.
What if we tried to be as successful at being the church as we were at running a business of our own? The motivations for success may be different, but in the end, great leadership and success almost always come by the same mode and are very similar in nature.
