		<title>Wanted: Laborers for the Harvest</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Renaissance Church is a new church plant in Charlotte, NC.
We are looking for teammates &#8211; like-minded people who are ready for an adventure of eternal significance.
God is doing something so exciting &#8211; changing hearts and transforming lives of people who have been far from God.
But we need teammates to help us.  We especially need Christians [...]]]></description>

		<title>Nothing ventured, nothing gained</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
We recently had a lot of frequent flier miles, and a limited travel window&#8230; so it was time for a quick family vacation in the Caribbean.   It was a great time of much needed relaxation and family fun.
We enjoy activity &#8211; even when we&#8217;re relaxing.  So the ocean sport activities at our hotel were ideal.  [...]]]></description>

		<title>Taking it to the streets</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
We had a great time with the young men and women from Eglise Le Chemin in Gatineau, Quebec, Canada last week.  They spent their spring break in Charlotte &#8211; not to enjoy the (mostly) nice weather, but to share the Good News of Christ.  They were &#8220;on a mission&#8221;.
A missions trip to Charlotte?  Absolutely.  Any [...]]]></description>

		<title>The Yodeling Pickle</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
This was a Christmas gift from my wonderful and hilarious sister.  What can I say about this brilliant work of art?
I&#8217;m not sure I can access the deeper spiritual meaning of the electronic yodeling pickle.  Instead, here are a few points for you to ponder today.  I hope they enrich your life.  
1.  First, [...]]]></description>

		<title>Merry Christmas!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
Hope you had a great one.  We had one of our best in years.
The highlights:
&#8211; Took family ice skating and skiing in the surprisingly nice mountains of North Carolina.  (Where else but Charlotte can you drive 2 hours to go skiing or 2 hours to go to the beach?  OK, California.  But we don&#8217;t have [...]]]></description>

		<title>Free turkeys, big smiles</title>
		<description><![CDATA[We had a great time this weekend distributing turkeys and groceries to under-resourced families in the Charlotte area.  We were able to serve 11 families (over 60 people).  Many told us that they were desperate, wondering where the money was going to come from to pay for a family celebration this Thanksgiving.   We are so [...]]]></description>

		<title>What LOVE looks like</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This is how we know what love is: Jesus Christ laid down his life for us. And we ought to lay down our lives for our brothers. If anyone has material possessions and sees his brother in need but has no pity on him, how can the love of God be in him? Dear children, [...]]]></description>
