Pastor Mark preached and it was a very good sermon. Something we all need to reminded about from time to time. He quoted Dave Ramsey a lot and talked about the Total Money makeover book. We just got back from vacation, just paid our hospital bill, and fixed the goof up that Bok did with our last 2 pay checks. So money has been on our mind lately. :)
