Dynamite

A number of years ago, I was on a mission trip in Southeast Asia and was personally introduced to the power of dynamite.  I was with a group of students deep in the mountains at a remote river. A number of nationals were teaching us how to spear fish. To our surprise one of our guides pulled out a stick of dynamite from his pocket and gestured how we could use this to blow up fish from the bottom of the river.  This, of course, intrigued me and my fellow travelers, so we nodded our head and before we knew the wick was lit.  Our guide then tossed the lit dynamite in the river and we watched in amazement as it blew both water and a healthy catch of fish out of the river. It was great for that night’s dinner!

Dynamite is a powerful thing that can be used for both constructive and destructive purposes.

This weekend at Crossroads Church in Cranberry, we are starting a new series entitled: Dynamite.  We are going to look at the influences of sex, money, and power in our lives over the next few weeks.  Join us Sunday as we start this new series together and learn how to handle dynamite with care!
