Sweat…what you do in the ‘Burgh when it’s 87 degrees with relative humidity of 75%
Sweat equity…what you build up during a VBS (vacation bible school) week.
It started today at 6 AM, when I awoke to begin the first day of VBS week. Ordinarily words like sweat, AM, and humidity are not those I embrace, but today they were. I got to work alongside a great group of teens, which is energizing to say the least, and at best, reminds me not to take myself too seriously, ever.

The lives of these young people are precious; they are the treasure which must be stored up. Investing into their lives is one of the “funnest” privileges God could give me. There’s something special about putting your heart, mind and body to work for things of eternal value. The “liabilities” of heat, discomfort and fatigue come up short on the bottom line in the cause of Christ.
Sweat equity…worth the investment.
