    Are You Task Oriented?

    Focusing on ONE task at a time is often one of the most difficult things that we may face today.  In a world where we are graded by one another on how well we “multitask”, we have to stop and consider what Jesus tells a crowd of people who followed Him in John 6:26.  He…
