Jeff Miner http://lifejourneychurch.cc/listen/?p=411 Have you had your 15 minutes of fame? Probably not — most of us never will. We live; we die, and this great big world barely even notices.

This sermon looks at someone in the Bible who lived like us — obscure, anything but famous. Yet, in God’s eyes, he lived very well. From his example, we’ll gain insight about “the meaning of it all.”
