Book Study

We have started a new book study (Wednesday nights 6:30 in the Grace Sunday School Class room). The book is The 4:8 Priciple: The Secret to a Joy-Filled Life by Tommy Newberry, a motivational speaker from Atlanta. The study is being led by Bill Burke.

The book is inspired by Philippians 4:8:
Finally, beloved, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is pleasing, whatever is commendable, if there is any excellence and if there is anything worthy of praise, think about these things.
Phil 4:8 (NRSV)

The key word in that verse being "think". If we can learn to control our thoughts, to make all of our thoughts honorable, just, pure, pleasing, commendable we will experience joy.
