    “Joyful is the person who finds wisdom, the one who gains understanding. For wisdom is more profitable than silver, and her wages are better than gold. Wisdom is more precious than rubies; nothing you desire can compare with her.” — Proverbs 3:13-15

  2. What Really Matters

    What Really Matters — a word by Pastor Bill Young from The Rock Church in Draper, UT. "had an incredible impact on hundreds of lives. Her death made me once again reconsider what really matters in this life."

    “Yes, a wise man thinks much of death…” (Ecclesiastes 7:4a LB)

    My wife’s mom, Judy, passed away just before Thanksgiving. We traveled back to Iowa a few weeks ago to celebrate her life. Christian funerals are always bittersweet for me. On the one hand, I am so sad at the loss of our loved ones. On the other hand, however, I feel almost envious that they are now in Paradise with Jesus! How incredible it is to know that in Heaven, there are no more tears, pain, poor eyesight, worries, migraines, sorrows, or death.
