As we prepare for the Passover this year I want to discuss a unique tool that many of you may find meaningful and helpful performing your own personal analysis and self-evaluation this year. There is something about the activity of writing information down that gives an agreement or an idea certain credibility. Many things in our modern culture like a drivers license, a marriage license a mortgage agreement, or a purchase contract give legitimacy and validity to something we agree to do. Most covenants… are in writing including the Old and New Covenants written in scripture. So here’s the question I have for you today? Do you have a personal mission statement? A personal mission statement is a proclamation you put in writing declaring your own values, purpose, and life mission.
