You’re throwing an awesome outdoor BBQ this summer, everyone is having a great time, eating lots of good food and drinking lots of sodas. Everyone is tossing their paper plates and aluminum cans into a big black trash bag tied to the deck post. It’s leaking some mysterious liquid and the contents keep spilling over…
One night at our weekly Bible study home group Jude proceeded to give every one present a high five. He circled the room giving high fives to everyone multiple times throughout the evening.
