Ok, I am going to date myself.
One of my all time favorite wedding dance songs is “Celebration” by Kool and The Gang. Rachelle and I loved it so much that it was the first dance song at our wedding reception! Nothing gets me out on the floor faster than Kool announcing it is time to Celebrate!
This weekend we are concluding our “Stronger” series by looking at the spiritual discipline of Celebration. In the Old Testament God commanded Israel to exercise this discipline 7 times a year. On Sunday, we will see that Celebration honors God by enjoying his gifts, and how this discipline can give us strength for life. Take a few moments to read and reflect on Deuteronomy 16 and join us this weekend as we learn to exercise one of the more enjoyable disciplines of faith, Celebration!
