Romans 15:1-13
We are in a section of Romans that is about how we can make great Decisions…
I was in a place my feelings would have caused me to make horrible decisions…

Think of an everyday examples that are practical
A Church I know was once a great Church has sunk to the lowest point imaginable.
People who are long time members…still want things their way.
Cursed at the young Pastor.
Took seats up front scowling.
When he said, '' I want this to be a Church your grandchildren will come to and like…''
Said basically: ''I would rath ...
