Dear Team,
My "Daily Bible" text today was "Give thanks..." My comments were on the theme of gratitude. Have you ever been grateful for paying taxes? In 1966, George Harrison wrote the song, "Taxman" in which part of lyrics included the words, "If 5% appears too small...be grateful I don't take it all...I'm the Taxman."
Sunday, I'll give you the story behind the lyrics as we look at the Taxman who became one of Jesus' disciples. Most of us don't find paying taxes a particularly pleasant experience. People in Judea hated their tax collectors. They considered them traitors. A good Jew would never talk or eat with a tax collector. But, Jesus invited one to be his disciple and spent the evening at a dinner party at the tax collector's house!
Thanks to the Brunch Bunch for an awesome family meal last week. We are grateful for all your efforts to give us a chance to share a meal together and build our community. This week at Highline we won't be having a physical meal together, but we will be sharing some soul food! I'll update you on the results of our survey about the move and recent developments about the opportunity.
Hope to see you Sunday,
Love to all,
Bob
