SABRINA One of our key verses at Central is Proverbs 27:17 “As iron sharpens iron, so one man sharpens another.” Let’s be honest. When we read this verse, we want to think of the good ole, pat on the back, “atta boy, atta girl,” type of sharpening, not to be rebuked – to have our actions or intentions questioned. But that is exactly what that verse tells us. God knows that even those who walk closely with Him and strive to live as He would have us need “accountability partners” here on earth. It’s with the same care and loving concern that we who know Christ should confront sin in our own lives and in the lives of our close friends. We should welcome a friend in the faith who is willing to gently reveal when our attitude stinks, when we need an adjustment, and a spiritual sharpening. In return, let’s be loving enough to do the same for our friends. There is something uniquely special about a Christian friendship. If you are looking for a church home, friendship, accountability, community, I would like to invite you to come to Central, because after all, we are all together in this thing called life! Check out our website for worship times, events, and other opportunities to experience Christian fellowship, sharpening one another in love!
