I was hiding out in the far corner of my favorite place to get some work done when a group came in…got their coffee, and began a study in the book of Romans about all God has done for us.

The leader shared & explained God’s Word loudly and with passion…for over an hour.

At first I was irritated at the “disruption” to my quiet, but then I settled back to listen from my corner…and be inspired. I’ve heard the familiar words he spoke a thousand times, it seems. but this morning, in this setting, they spoke volumes to my soul.

“For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ, for it is the power of God to salvation for everyone who believes.” – Romans 1:16
