Health Care Plan for '95

January 15, 1995
Opening illustration: (Attending the Nuggets game.) At half time they brought two people to half court, blindfolded them and spun them around. Then the contestants had to listen to the verbal commands of others, find the basket and make a shot. They received $$ for each basket they made.

And if we did, did we find that destination as attractive and fulfilling as we had dreamed or anticipated?
We want to talk this morning about what we are planning to do with our life for this next year. How can we "boldly go" into 1995? In order to "Boldly Go" into 1995 we need to ask ourselves 3 questions: Where am I now? Where do I want to go? How will I get ther ...
