Right. What makes the response to a POST a "resource" is that the definition of "resource" is "bag of bits" (amongst other things, as you point out below). > Almost everybody who deals with resources is totally aware that the > resource is an abstract concept, and, in the case of an HTTP resource, > can be a static document, a Java servlet, a CGI script, whatnot; but > certainly not the same thing as you get when you do a GET request.

I agree that HTTP, URI (and IRI), and AWWW use this terminology. I also think that HTTP, URI (and IRI), and AWWW happen to be the three main documents in this space that are out of touch with reality these days (for many reasons, not just this particular minor terminology issue). So I don't really feel that they are especially relevant here. (Larry is doing good work to address this as far as the IRI spec goes.) Most of the other relevant specs (HTML4, CSS, DOM, SVG, XMLHttpRequest, etc) use the word "resource" in the far more generic sense understood by most people (e.g. referring to "XML resources", referring to the dimensions of resources, referring to resources as images, referring to resources having encodings, etc). > if the "resource" is a bag-of-bits, what is the thing you send a POST > request to? You send the POST request to an HTTP server, and the HTTP server responds with a resource. > PS: is a resource in the "tel" URI scheme a bag-of-bits as well? Is a > "websocket" resource a bag-of-bits? I don't think most people would refer to any resources in those contexts, though I suppose one could argue that the phone connection or TCP connection obtained when one uses those URLs are resources, in the same sense that memory, CPU, and disk space are resources. -- Ian Hickson U+1047E )\._.,--....,'``. fL http://ln.hixie.ch/ U+263A /, _.. \ _\ ;`._ ,.

"All Hands-on All the time" Courses (1/2 day to 5 day courses):
Gynesim provides robust surgical training curricula based on sound learning and teaching theory: deliberate practice, proctored hands-on and thalamic engagement, reiterative reinforcement of basic principles through graded challenge and complexity with an emphasis on hands-on manual training.
Laparoscopic Procedure specific training – These courses focus on procedural training, leveraging the procedure-specific high fidelity Real Tissue Models to provide realistic simulation training in closely proctored repetitive drill. Procedural steps can be taught first in isolation, then in sequence, finally then supported by repetitive practice. With supervised practice, these individual steps build towards performance of a global procedure. Procedure specific courses offered include training in Total Laparoscopic Hysterectomy, Myomectomy, Sacrocolpopexy and Operative Hysteroscopy.
Gynesim also provides Real Tissue Model surgical training simulation models that support surgical training in other minimally invasive specialties: Bariatric procedures including Roux-en-Y, Sleeve Gastrectomy, and Banding, Urologic procedures including diagnostic and operative cystoscopy, and endoscopic procedures including ESR, EMR and combined colonoscopic and laparoscopic sleeve resection.
Contact Dr. Mackenzie for procedure specific courses.
In addition to laparoscopic procedural courses, Gynesim also offers the following:
Vaginal Hysterectomy and vaginal resuspension training course - This one day simulation course concentrates on the relevant anatomy of the female pelvis, the anatomic basis for vaginal hysterectomy, performance in simulation using the Vaginal Hysterectomy Real Tissue Models and then utilizing a cadaveric model to perform vaginal hysterectomy. Modified McCalls colposuspension is also taught.
Endometriosis Radical Excision Course - This course is an intensive day-long course with focused didactics and an all-hands-on-all-the-time skill lab intended for practicing gynecologist who desire practical training in advanced surgical management of complex endometriosis. Morning didactics are devoted to understanding the embryologic origin of endometriosis as rationale for radical excisional treatment and the physical principles underlying monopolar energy and its safe and highly effective use in endometriosis excision. Morning wet lab will provide opportunity to understand and practice application of monopolar energy to create desired tissue effects. Three different afternoon hands-on labs will focus on endometriosis radical excisional technique 1) Monopolar-wired tissue lab highlighting dissection technique leveraging high power density radiofrequency current. 2) A Real Tissue Model (high fidelity endometriosis simulation platforms) lab providing skill development in radical excisional technique off of bowel, bladder, peritoneum. 3) Live-anesthetized pig/endometriosis simulation prep will be used to practice hands-on dissection and excision of endometriosis found implanted on critical structures: bowel, bladder, ureter, vasculature, retroperitoneum. Three to four participants for each pig will practice the safe use of monopolar dissection, excision of deep endometriosis, necessary repair of excision sites as encountered – this latter presumes facility in laparoscopic suturing and knot-tying. The porcine model is a lab prep developed as a surgical training simulation of complex endometriosis.
Laparoscopic suturing and knot-tying – This course teaches a reliable, reproducible technique based on solving the fundamental geometric principles of "suture angle and plane" and "instrument angle and plane". Once these principles are understood, suturing and knot-tying with straight sticks becomes easy. Each course utilizes progressive simulation from low fidelity to high fidelity, providing increasing challenge to the learner. The amount of repetitive supervised deliberate practice depends on the length of the course. Courses provide instruction in suturing and knot tying fundamentals including introduction of the needle, loading the needle, needle drives and knot tying. Additional instruction depending on course length provide understanding of flat knot and cinch knot anatomy and function, and instruction and practice in clinical applications. The goal of each of these courses is to provide surgeons with a reliable suturing and knot-tying skill that improves both surgical confidence to take on more complex cases and competence in the performance of them.
While offered in the Fall and Spring as the Boston-Gynesim Advanced MIGS practicum this course or modifications of it can be provided on-site in any venue anywhere at any time
Cadaveric Dissection - Laparoscopic Cadaveric pelvic dissection courses offered by Gynesim provide proctored hands-on opportunity to explore and define retroperitoneal spaces and anatomy and learn critical spatial relationships of the different structures in the pelvis. Gynesim has also developed a highly innovative "Constructive Dissection of the Female Pelvis" anatomy exercise as preliminary to the laparoscopic dissection - this exercise takes learners through a self-guided building of the pelvis from the "bones up".
Customized curriculum and individual training - Individualized training at your choice of venue (eg. office in home city) or in Boston. These courses are tailored to specific learning objectives and leverage closely proctored/supervised and all-hands-on-all-the-time training. Distance learning can be set up for surgeons either as a preliminary to a formal course attendance or in followup to courses taken. Gynesim can provide laparoscopic box trainers (Gynecase) and equipment for independent skill development in addition to expert surgical training and instruction. Contact Dr. Mackenzie for specific individualized learning needs.

Proposed Regulations Issued That Would Allow Use of Truncated Social Security Numbers on W-2s Issued to Employees
The IRS has issued proposed regulations that would allow employers to truncate social security numbers (SSNs) on the employee copies of Forms W-2 in REG-105004-16. However, the IRS has announced that the option won't be available for W-2s issued before December 31, 2018.
Prior to a change in the law found in the PATH Act, IRC §6051(a)(2) required the employee's social security to be printed in full on the employee's copy of Form W-2. Due to concerns regarding identity theft, Congress changed the law to remove that requirement. However, the law did not mandate the use of truncated numbers and the regulations continue to require use of the employee's entire social security number.
The revised regulation would allow the use of "truncated taxpayer identification numbers" (TTIN) on Forms W-2 issued to employees. Reg. §301.6109-4(b) provides the definition of such numbers which currently are authorized to be used on other information reporting forms. As the preamble describes a TTIN:
Under §301.6109-4(a), a TTIN is an individual's SSN, IRS individual taxpayer identification number (ITIN), IRS adoption taxpayer identification number (ATIN), or IRS employer identification number (EIN) in which the first five digits of the nine-digit number are replaced with Xs or asterisks. For example, a TTIN replacing an SSN appears in the form XXX–XX–1234 or ***–**–1234. Section 301.6109-4(b)(2)(ii) prohibits using TTINs if, among other things, a statute, regulation, other guidance published in the Internal Revenue Bulletin, form, or instructions specifically requires the use of an SSN. Additionally, §301.6109-4(b)(2)(iii) prohibits the use of TTINs on any return, statement, or other document that is required to be filed with or furnished to the IRS.
The regulations would still require full SSNs on the copy filed with the Social Security Administration.
The regulation makes certain changes that remove obsolete provisions and cross-references from the regulations.
But, as was noted earlier, 2017 W-2s will not be covered by this rule. The IRS explains the reason for this delay by noting:
Several state tax administrators have requested additional time to develop systems to process the copies of Forms W-2 filed with state income tax returns that may contain truncated SSNs. In light of this request, these proposed regulations will not apply to Forms W-2 required to be furnished before January 1, 2019. Accordingly, these proposed regulations provide that these regulations, as amended, will be applicable for statements required to be filed and furnished under sections 6051 and 6052 after December 31, 2018.

LoveBlog -Freedom
Years ago, my friend Doug Smith planted the freedom seed within me. Over a decade ago he was making moves to be able to work from anywhere with his business True Nutrition . This inspired me. About five years ago, I also began moving toward that type of occupational freedom. I wanted to be able to work from anywhere and to be with those I love, to travel freely and not be tied to just one spot.
Now I have that freedom. I can be anywhere in the world, do what I love and contribute. I work every day and a few times a week, I wash my hair, throw it in rollers and plug away just like this. This is what I look like behind the scenes. I work from my bed when I'm home because my cat Jack will climb all over me if I work from a desk. So I brought the desk to the bed. He lays on my lap or beside me and I work away. I love it! Plus, the bed is where I get all my good ideas 💕
Last year I was able to pack myself and Jack up and help my family. While my mother was in the hospital, I was able to be with her and not think about an office I would have to get back to. Being with her during that time, and then having that freedom in the first few months of mourning her, was such a blessing. So many people don't have that luxury to really dig deep into their grief. I remember getting off the phone with a new client and then bursting into tears. I was alone with my cat. I could break down completely, then slowly put myself back together and go back to work when I felt ready to.
My office is always with me. In the coming months I'll be moving back to San Diego, but I'll always have time for Nantucket. People ask, "what will you do out there?".
And my reply, "Same thing I'm doing now"!
Working from anywhere does have its challenges. I wake up and I start working. This isn't so much a challenge per se because I love what I do, but the boundaries are not quite clear. There are also days I'm not motivated and if you work from home or have your own business you need to stay motivated. No one is going to cover me or do the work for me. I am 100% responsible. Freedom is precious.💕
One of my gigs that allows me to work from anywhere is with a great company called @tawkify. I'm a matchmaker with them. If you're interested in learning more about being a matchmaker, direct message me and we can chat. If you're into love and helping people, this will be perfect for you!
I have spaces left for The Love School Feedback group. You'll have access to The Love School for life as well as a bunch of great goodies! Email me if you're interested email@example.com

The price of copper has tripled in five years. Zinc has doubled. Wheat and soybeans rose 70 percent in 2007. Futures prices of crude oil, gold, silver, lead, uranium, cattle, cocoa and corn are all at or near records.
A global boom in the cost of commodities, the staple ingredients of a modern economy, is entering its sixth year with no end in sight. Commodities have always been subject to boom-and-bust cycles, but many economists see a fundamental shift driving the markets these days.
As development rolls across once-destitute countries at a breakneck pace, lifting billions out of poverty, demand for food, metals and fuel is red-hot, and suppliers are struggling to meet it. Prices are spiraling, and Americans find themselves in what amounts to a bidding war with overseas buyers for products as diverse as milk and gasoline.
"It is absolutely a fundamental change in the global economic structure," said Bart Melek, global commodities strategist for BMO Capital Markets, an investment firm based in Toronto. "Global commodities ranging from oil to base metals to grains are moving higher as billions of people in China and around the world get wealthier and are consuming more as they produce products for us, and increasingly for themselves."
Now, with the United States economy slowing, the question is what happens next. One possibility is that a recession in this country, should it occur, would suppress demand enough that commodity prices would fall substantially for the first time in several years. But many economists argue that demand overseas would keep prices high even with a recession in the United States. That would compound the economic pain for Americans, forcing them to continue paying a premium at the meat counter and the gas pump even as their paychecks suffered.Continue reading the main story
These economists say it will be hard to stop the ascent in commodity prices because it is connected more than at any other time in recent years to events beyond the United States, particularly the industrialization of China, and to a lesser extent of India, and in booming oil economies like Saudi Arabia and Russia.
"The world is coming alive and the lights are coming on across Asia," said James Glassman, a senior economist at JPMorgan Chase. "What we are dealing with is a tremendous demand for resources."
Meeting that demand is becoming more difficult. Oil is no longer easy to find, and the cost of producing it is escalating. Droughts and in places excessive rain have produced sporadic grain shortages; some scientists link such extremes in weather to global warming and the rising use of fossil fuel.
The biggest single factor increasing commodity prices is China's rush to construct factories, other buildings and roads to satisfy a growing, increasingly middle-class urban population with a taste for cars and other consumer goods.
China today has 7,000 steel factories, double the number in 2002. Every new factory needs electricity, which means that power plants must be built. More diesel-powered trains are required to get the coal to the power plants, and more trucks and expanded ports are needed to move the steel to market.
China's industrial revolution caused an increase in crude oil consumption to 7.5 million barrels a day last year from 5.5 million barrels in 2003, according to the International Energy Agency, representing 31 percent of the total rise in global demand. Over the same period, China was responsible for 64 percent of the increased global demand for copper, 70 percent of that for aluminum and 82 percent for zinc.
The Chinese economy grew well over 10 percent last year, compared with an American growth rate of perhaps 2.5 percent. China has grown briskly since 1982, when Communist leaders began to revamp the economy. India's economy is growing almost as fast, in large part from a surge in domestic consumption.
The International Energy Agency projects that China and India combined may increase their oil consumption to 23.1 million barrels in 2030 from 9.3 million a day in 2005. The demand for oil is also growing in big developing countries like Russia and Mexico, where car ownership is rapidly rising.
That global demand lifts both metals and food prices. Vast construction projects to dig up oil sands in Canada and drill for conventional oil across the Middle East and Africa are under way, driving up the price of steel.
As fuel costs go up, countries like the United States and Brazil look for alternatives like biofuels. The ethanol boom in the Midwest has driven up the price of corn. Since corn is a vital feed product for animals, the prices of meat and milk have followed. The prices of other grains are going up as their acreage is supplanted by corn.
"You are trying to feed people, cattle and cars, so you have this global fight between food and energy," said Michael Lewis, global head of commodities research at Deutsche Bank. He noted that the United States was responsible for 60 percent of the increase in the global demand for corn last year, which he said resulted primarily from the rapid expansion of ethanol production.
The rise in commodity prices is accompanying a broadening of the middle class in many countries, but recent protests in Mexico after a steep climb in tortilla prices showed that not everyone stands to gain. The world's poor spend a large percentage of their income on food, so higher grain prices tend to hit them hard.
Consumers in the United States have less to spend at the mall when they pay $3 a gallon for gasoline. The national average for a gallon of unleaded gasoline has climbed to $3.07 from $2.24 a year ago, according to AAA, the automobile club, while a gallon of diesel fuel has climbed to $3.43 a gallon from $2.61.
Price shock has also accompanied trips to the supermarket. According to preliminary estimates by the Department of Agriculture for 2007, beef and veal prices rose 4.5 percent, poultry 5.2 percent, dairy products 7.4 percent and eggs 28 percent. The department is projecting increases for many food items this year, although it says that they may ease for those that rose the most in 2007. Experts, though, say that similar sustained food inflation has not been seen in the United States since 1990.
Economists and some others say the continuing boom in commodities prices may slow this year, if for no other reason than the 2007 pace for many crucial commodities — up 57 percent for crude oil and more than 70 percent for wheat and soybeans — was so stunning. Since the 2001 recession, the Commodity Research Bureau's broad price index has risen by 100 percent.
"I would temper wild-eyed bulls who think China can grow at 10 percent plus without a strong United States," said Adam Robinson, an energy analyst at Lehman Brothers. He said that China, which was an importer of steel and aluminum as recently as 2002, is now an important exporter of both to the United States and Europe and that some of the new steel factories could fail if there was a global recession.
Nevertheless, Mr. Robinson said commodities prices would probably remain steady in 2008 and possibly slide in 2009. The prices of many, if not most, major commodities — including nickel, copper, sugar, silver, cocoa and coffee — have continued their climb so far this year.
"Demand will be very difficult to slow down unless you take a very bearish view on the long-term global economy," Mr. Robinson added.Continue reading the main story

Adventure travel is skyrocketing. Forget traveling to the safe and normal places, this is the age of adventure, writing and fulfilling bucket lists in the far corners of the world.
Statistics, according to the Adventure Travel Trade Association, stats are increasing every year, and there seems to be no hint of a slowdown. The world is a big place, full of exotic locations, but they aren't just for the few any longer, they are available to anyone who has the budget and motivation to get off the couch and make some memories.
If you're not familiar with the term Adventure Travel, basically it means getting out of your comfort zone and taking a physical approach to your surroundings. This isn't your granddads trip to Alaska about a Princess Cruise line; this is getting out and diving into the countryside, whether that be oceans, mountains or anywhere you can safely arrive. Beyond this, you meet locals, develop relationships, immerse yourself in local life. You're building memories to last a lifetime and proving, that no, you're not over the hill, instead, you're going to climb it.
There is no end to the list of Adventure Travel destinations like
- Lake Louise, Banff, Canada. …
- Moab, Utah, Grand Cayman, Cayman Islands. …
- Rain Forest, Costa Rica,
- Rio de Janeiro,
- Isle of Bute,
- Scotland
and tons more. A simple Google search will set the dreams afire and stir the emotions But all of this destination, as well as much more; all have one thing in common, a hefty price tag. Think about it; you may be deciding to fly halfway around the world, those tickets don't come cheap. If you have the money, then go for it, but if you're on a budget, like so many of us, are there any alternatives? The simple answer is a resounding, Yes, it simply takes a bit more effort.
So how can you have a grand adventure without emptying out the savings account? Think locally.
There are a million, and one domestic destinations the budget conscious can reach. Sure, a trip to the Mt. Everest base camp would be a thrill, but it would also be unattainable for those with less than a small fortune sitting in the bank. America, indeed the world, is full of beautiful, breathtaking overnight treks.
Consider camping, and we're not talking about the latest RV, but backpacking into the wilderness, setting up camp and enjoying the serenity and beauty of Mother Nature. A good camping setup doesn't cost a lot, and it' can be used over and over again.
Consider national parks, of which there are more than 400 designated and 84 million acres. Some, like Yellow Stone and Yosemite, charge a fee, but there are hundreds that are the free and open to exploring. This is an excellent jumping off place for the adventure-minded on a budget. Certainly, we've all heard of Yellowstone, The Grand Canyon, and Yosemite, but there are hundreads of others to choose from, some possibly within a day's drive. They are full of majestic beauty, wildlife, short and long hikes, and chock full of history and lore. Don't let the fact there in the U.S. dampen your enthusiasm; they are treasures to be enjoyed and most offer challenging trails and views to stimulate the imagination.
FACTOID: While some of the larger parks charge a fee for entrance, most have certain times of the years when fees are waived. Details can be found on the National Park Website. https://www.nps.gov/index.htm
DIY – Do it yourself Trekking
If National parks simply aren't your cup-of-tea, and you're determined to visit some far off land, then great, but skip the big advertised tours and do it yourself.
It will take a good deal more planning, but realize that tour companies charge a premium for doing all the leg work and making sure your adventure happens without a hitch. There is always a local guide, and outfitters close to your chosen destination and most of the details can be worked out on the ground after you arrive. This way, not only are you going to save money, often quite a bit, but you'll be engaging the locals, learning more about the customs and stimulating the local economy. Doing it yourself can turn into a Win/Win for everyone involved.
Thinking It Through
If you're planning a mountain trip in the Alps, it's going to cost you plenty. The airfare alone is expensive, not to mention the local outfitters. What about a trip that fits your dreams, but is closer to home? If you live in the U.S., then traveling to Mexico or Central America is a lot less expensive than a plane flight halfway around the world.
Then consider your lodging, do you need a 4 or 5-star hotel? Most do not, since most of their time will be spent exploring and enjoying the local culture. If you can, consider downgrading the accommodations, saving dollars on lodging can be better allocated to staying longer, or participating in a side trip you only learned about when you arrived. Afterall, you'll likely only be sleeping at the hotel, so plan accordingly.
Plan Your Trip in The Off Season
If possible, plan your adventure holiday in the offseason. You'll save money, avoid the crowds and find locals much more willing to help and share local legends and hideaways.
Volunteer Vacations
If money is tight, consider a volunteer vacation. This isn't something for everyone, but if money is in short supply, this is an excellent way to meet the locals, learn the area and help out where help is needed. Sure, you won't have the same free time, but you'll have an experience that few others can match.
Be Safe – Book Basic
If you're dead set to visit some of the most exotic locations in the world, consider booking a basic tour. A basic tour is going to cost more than a do-it-yourself journey, but you'll have the peace of mind of knowing your trip is being handled by professionals. Think of it like having membership in the AAA Auto Club, sure you can fix your flat tire, but if it's at night on a rainy highway, it's nice to know you can call someone. If you're new to the game of adventure travel, knowing that a professional guide has your back is money in the bank if you're deep in the wilderness, or kayaking down a raging river.
FACTOID: Professional adventure travel tours are expensive based on multiple factors, accommodations (particularly single travelers), safety, support personnel, and vehicles.
The Spur of The Moment
Not all of us can travel, particularly for an adventure, on the spur of the moment. If you can, however, keep a watchful eye for early bird and last minute booking opportunities, these trips are usually discounted substantially. There are also adventure tour companies that cater to the budget travelers, offering trips without all the add-ons.
RECOMMENDATION: when speaking with tour companies, ask if they charge extra for single travelers.
If you know you want to participate in adventure travel, but aren't sure whether to do-it-yourself or hire a tour company, then it's time for a bit of homework. You'll want to consider your tolerance for being on your own vs. a measure of support to make the trip more comfortable. There isn't one right answer as one person's needs and tolerance can vary greatly from another, it's a personal choice. Compare prices, not simply between tour companies, but against doing most of the work yourself.

6040 Diane Court in Rohnert Park-Just Sold!
Posted by Lea Kuehnhackl on Wednesday, October 31st, 2012 at 4:43pm.
I am excited to announce the sale of my client's home at 6040 Diane Court in Rohnert Park. I was able to assist the seller with pre-sale inspections, home preparation and staging. This coupled with the seller's great pride in ownership in caring for the property for the past 28 years made the home highly desirable and sold yesterday for $425,000.00.
Located in a cul-de-sac in the coveted D section of Rohnert Park, it featured beautiful landscaping with a waterfall and koi pond. The interior amenities included 2,145 square feet with 4 bedrooms and 2 ½ baths, with a family room, formal living room and separate dining room. The master bath was tastefully remodeled recently and even boasted a steam shower.

June 22 - September 12, 2004
The collection of 100 prints by Pablo Picasso known as the Vollard Suite, one of the most important graphic series in the history of art and comparable in quality and importance only to the prints of Rembrandt and Goya, takes its name from the dealer Ambroise Vollard, for whom Picasso etched the copper plates between September 1930 and June 1936. In them the Malagueñan artist employs in a novel and surprising way such diverse techniques as burin, drypoint, etching, and sugar aquatint (also known as "sugar lift").
Four themes run through the Vollard Suite: The Sculptor's Studio, The Minotaur, Rembrandt, and the Battle of Love. The Suite is completed by three portraits of Ambroise Vollard carried out in 1927. Some of the themes have a remote origin in Honoré de Balzac's short story Le Chef-d'oeuvre inconnu (The Unknown Masterpiece, 1831), which greatly impressed Picasso. It tells the story of a painter's efforts to capture life itself on canvas through the means of feminine beauty and it anticipates the origins of modern art, of which Picasso would be one of the main forgers.

Dear Seyfi, Zeki and Hasan,
Tesekur ederis for a wonderful and memorable week on the Kaptan Yarkin. We fully agree with our son Mats (above) and the other passengers: it would not have been better! From the omelets to the rose; from Kleopatra's Island to English Harbour and "Sweet Water", we enjoyed every minute of it. You worked so hard and kept up the spirit. The truth is: it was better than we could have dreamed.
Take care and hope to see you again.

AB 2640 (Huffman, 2007-08) Compostable Organics Management
This bill is intended to promote the highest and best use of organic materials in California.
Position and Status.
CAW Supports. AB 2640 was held in the Senate Appropriations Committee, but was later incorporated into AB 1390. Previously, the bill passed out of Sen. E.Q. committee June 23 with a 4-3 vote. Prior to that, the bill passed off the Assembly Floor May 28, passed out of Assembly Appropriations May 22, and passed out of the Assembly Natural Resources Committee on April 14th with a 5-3 vote.
AB 2640 would help expand the state's composting infrastructure by providing grants for facility operators to overcome regulatory barriers. The money for these grants would be generated through a fee on the use of green materials as landfill cover, a practice that has significant environmental impacts.

Before asking many of the questions typically voiced about whether or not a church should build new facilities and expand or renovate, let's first ask some key questions:
1) What is the bare minimum we need, for our church, to fulfill our purpose to love God and love people?
2) What is the optimal, for our church, to be fulfilling our purpose to love God and love people?
3) Where do we cross the line in either direction, lose our footing, and stop fulfilling our purpose to love God and love people?
Proverbs 30:8-9 does not speak of church facilities but the principle therein certainly could apply. — "Give me neither poverty nor riches, but give me only my daily bread. Otherwise, I may have too much and disown you and say, 'Who is the LORD?' Or I may become poor and steal, and so dishonor the name of my God."
One of the points we can pull from these verses is that we must not allow our facilities, however grand or meager, to distract us from our primary purpose. We must not get so consumed with our surroundings that we forget God or dishonor His name. When we cross this line, we set ourselves up for a fall.
We lose our footing when we begin to:
- rely more on "what" we have to attract people than "Who" we have.
- begrudge what we do not have rather than trust "Him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us" (Eph. 3:20).
- become so financially indebted that we cannot meet the needs of people and hence show God's love to them.
- manipulate people in order to raise funds.
- put people on guilt trips if they don't commit to a fundraising pledge.
- get so rigid about how the church facilities are used that we lose the flexibility needed to flow with the Spirit.
- focus more on preserving buildings than on promoting ministry.
- get so consumed with comparing ourselves to those who have more than we do that we don't do what we can do with what we do have.
- find ourselves competing with other churches to be bigger or better.
We don't need a magnificent building to live out God's purposes. We can exist with the bare minimum, and even thrive with very little. The extras might enhance what we do but if we aren't careful, they can also become a miry pit of distractions.
If you have crossed that line, cry out to the Lord for help to regain your footing. May you be able to say, "He turned to me and heard my cry. He lifted me out of the slimy pit, out of the mud and mire; he set my feet on a rock and gave me a firm place to stand" (Ps. 40:1-2).


text: Once a year Samuel Jackson smokes $14k in crack until his money gives out. I catch him after only a couple of thousand dollars have been spent. We go together to his apartment in New York, where he asks me to hide the remaining $12k. I hide it in the crawlspace above the hall closet, where he tells me they hid Jews during the war. In a gym bag. Samuel is grateful.
