Is that the truth? Pastor Kevin of Highland Park church passionately gave one of the best sermons I’ve ever witnessed. With each man he brought on stage with a black shirt was a representation of a lie, a lie of a lie, and two more lies to cover it up. By the end of the sermon, nearly a 10th of the church stood on the stage… awkwardly waiting for the punchline. “Every time you lie, you create a copy of the truth that is corrupted. Much like a virus, the lies continue to spread before you can no longer identify what is truth and what is fake. This is the beginning of the melt down.” The church was stunned. I began remembering scenarios in my life that started with a little story “I was going to clean my room but…” where I had gotten away with it only to find bad habits firmly taking root in college. Growing pains right? The truth is, telling the truth should be easy. Especially when it comes to your data, which should work for you. Never against you. Every project we complete a quilt test, it is what sets us apart from our competition. Consider it our very own lie detector. Unbiased we hunt for the truth. What is the quilt test? Well… “Does Client name in spreadsheet 1 match the Client name in Spreadsheet 2?” If it doesn’t, your metrics are wrong. The Quilt test finds these errors. This is the beginning… luckily, when it is over our solutions are designed to prevent lies. Let’s get started!!! ➡️#taketheskyway

The Good Way: Gifts of the 7 Grandfathers The Gifts of the 7 Grandfathers is an age-old piece of true Indigenous wisdom, sometimes called the Lessons of the 7 Grandfathers. By understanding these 7 Gifts and utilizing them daily, we can grow as individuals in meaningful, sometimes surprising, ways. The basics are easy to grasp, sure. Taking them to heart and turning them into a roadmap for living your life is challenging in today’s world. Challenging is not impossible, and growing as a person allows us to each add our wisdom and knowledge in a more meaningful way to the world in general. Teachings in the Modern World Even though these gifts date back to ancient times, they still have a place in the modern world. Even today, you may hear phrases like “karma”, “what comes around goes around”, or even “you get what you give”. These phrases all point to a resounding belief across the world that the Teachings of the Seven Grandfathers are still relevant. Indeed, today’s modern world makes practicing some gifts fairly easy through charity work or day-to-day interactions. Even so, our modern world can also make practicing other gifts even more difficult to do every day.   Regardless of how difficult it is, we should always seek to use all of the gifts together, for what is love without respect and truth? What is bravery without wisdom and respect? Each of these teachings must be used with the rest. To leave one out is to embrace the opposite of what the teaching is.

In those four promises, our children find love and emotional support. They find truth and honesty. They find security and discipline. But mostly, they find hope and the chance to discover God’s true purpose for their lives. This was our mission in 1974. It is our mission today. And it will remain our faithful mission for the next 50 years. https://hubs.ly/Q02lpkkz0
