What Drives You?

Ecclesiastes 4:4 4 And I saw that all toil and all achievement spring from one person’s envy of another. This too is meaningless, a chasing after the wind.   Dear Friends in Christ, If you happened to be here last Sunday morning, then hopefully you will remember that I began a brand new sermon series that…

Does anybody know what that name is or what I’m even talking about? I’m talking about Everest. Mt. Everest.
