Are You The 10th Person?

I'm usually charged up after attending church. Last Sunday was no exception. My minister started a new series on "Strengthening Relationships." It was hard hitting and real. He was a mental health counsellor prior to the ministry and it often shows.

In Sunday school one of the members, as usual, taught. She's a psychologist. All of what she shared - plus the discussion - was excellent.

Following is one of her concepts:

- For every nine people who denounce innovation only one will encourage it.

- For every nine people who do things the way they've always been done only one will wonder if there's a better way.

- For every nine people who stand in line in the front of a locked building only one will check the back door
.

When we walked out of church I felt like I'd just had an invaluable experience!
