Citizen of Heaven
DONKEYS: Balaam. "The Jackass Whisperer." Loopholes. La Granja: No Siesta
Donkeys won the poll last week for the animal to feature this week. That was done through the Heaven Citizens Facebook group – check it out if you have not already. This week we’ll discuss the lesson a donkey taught Balaam and is trying to teach us today; the donkeys we meet every day and how to avoid becoming one of them; the rationalizations we make for celebrating donkey-ish behavior; and a long-overdue celebration of the hardest workers in all of board-gaming.
Hal Hammons serves as preacher and shepherd for the Lakewoods Drive church of Christ in Georgetown, Texas. He is the host of the Citizen of Heaven podcast. You are encouraged to seek him and the Lakewoods Drive church through Facebook and other social media. Lakewoods Drive is an autonomous group of Christians dedicated to praising God, teaching the gospel to all who will hear, training Christians in righteousness, and serving our God and one another faithfully. We believe the Bible is God's word, that Jesus died on the cross for our sins, that heaven is our home, and that we have work to do here while we wait. Regular topics of discussion and conversation include: Christians, Jesus, obedience, faith, grace, baptism, New Testament, Old Testament, authority, gospel, fellowship, justice, mercy, faithfulness, forgiveness, Twenty Pages a Week, Bible reading, heaven, hell, virtues, character, denominations, submission, service, character, COVID-19, assembly, Lord's Supper, online, social media, YouTube, Facebook.
