		<description><![CDATA[What is your gift? Exercise it according to the grace given you! Each one of us has a purpose for being here, each one has a purpose in the body of Christ.  Some people can give, some can pray for others (intercede), some can exhort, some will exhort via a blog, some will go and visit. The gifts in the body of Christ are there to encourage other believers.]]></description>

Christian values don't end when you pickup your cell phone and record or tweet something you think you need to share with the masses.  What ever is pleasing and conducive to the spirit of God, doesn't change with the use of your smart phone.]]></description>
