Attitude: A Make or Break Quality

In this sermon Mr. Smith looks at a quality of character that is not only important in the church but is also important in the business world and in team sports. He points out that the word attitude is not found in the Bible but its qualities clearly are. He looks in detail at the attitudes of two people covered in the Bible, the wrong attitude of Cain and the proper attitude displayed in the life of John the Baptist.
