GETTING A GRIP ON YOUR GRIPES
Philippians 2:14-18
Oh man, this has been a wild week for me and it still is a wild

the most peaceful conventions I have been to in a decade. It is
really boring, it's really boring. But it's the kind of boring
that you really want. Often you go to a convention as a pastor
and you know you have a chance to be around some of your friends
