Google

This week we hit the "news" tab on the Google tool bar. There are some pretty interesting headlines in the news and Mike will show a few that the editor must have overlooked.

What we already know is that if you spend much time reading/watching the news - it's easy to get discouraged.  Even positive news seems to get a negative spin.  How do we live with hope when so much around us can seem so discouraging? 

This week our search is for "hope."  Maybe you have a friend who could use some.  Invite them this Sunday for a donut, coffee/juice, great people, and hope.
