Scripture: For the time is coming when people will not endure sound teaching, but having itching ears they will accumulate for themselves teachers to suit their own passions, and will turn away from listening to the truth and wander off into myths. (2 Timothy 4:3-4 ESV)

Observation: if the messages that you routinely hear at your church do not convict or challenge you, ask this question:"Why is that?"

Application: God's word is convicting, it is challenging, and praise God for that.  I encourage everyone to find a church that teaches sound doctrine, that challenges you, and that teaches the tough passages that bring conviction, which in turn produces repentance and righteousness.

Prayer: Daddy, tonight I want to pray that You would rock the boat, that You would challenge and convict us, all for Your glory.  Amen.
