Devon Church


Marge, the children, and I spent the weekend in Evanston, IL visiting my sister Beverly, her husband John, and their daughter Mercedes. We helped lead worship at their home church Devon Church in Chicago, and Michael and I sang solos.



I was a privilege to be part of their worship service. One line from Pastor Carlini's message stuck with me. He said, "There is no such thing as personal sin. One a person sins it always has an impact on the community (i.e. family, and church) around him."

It's so true. Sin damages our relationship with God, and when I sin it has an impact on my biological family and my church family. How important it is to live lives of repentance and to be transparent in our dealings.
