Wolves at the Gate: Dust to Dust

What will you gain?
What will you earn?
What is your claim?
From dust we come
And dust we return.

If I loved wealth
I’d find the root of evil.
If I lust for power
I’d lose my soul.
If I sought fame
I’d be a thief
Of all Your Honor
Honor, Glory, and Praise.

Hollow and hopeless and cold
Is value in fame and in gold.
The truest of treasures
Is to be found within His fold.

Oh how lost I would be
If my faith unwound.
(And I lost the Lord)
Oh how empty my soul
Would ever be found.
(If I gained the world)

If you’re seeking after treasures
Designed by human hands
You’ll come and find to realize
Your soul it demands.

If I loved wealth
I’d find the root of evil.
If I lust for power
I’d lose my soul.
If I sought fame
I’d be a thief
Of all Your Honor
Honor, Glory, and Praise.

What is your wealth?
What is your fame?
What is your goal?
If you gain the world
But lose your soul?

Oh how lost I would be
If my faith unwound.
(And I lost the Lord)
Oh how empty my soul
Would ever be found.
(If I gained the world)

The joy in knowing
I’m blood bought by the King.
My truest treasure is
I’ll know my King!
Know my King!

2014 Bestselling Christian Books

Regarding 4, 7, and 9: if we swapped the few Bible verses in these books for Quran verses, could we then call them Muslim books?

BUILD: Men’s Conference (Western Michigan) Feb. 20-21

COLOSSIANS 2:6-7 (ESV)

Therefore, as you received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk in him, rooted and built up in him and established in the faith, just as you were taught, abounding in thanksgiving.

By God’s grace our mission is to build up Christian men through solid biblical teaching that is rooted in the gospel and applicable for everyday life.

The Build Conference (formerly West Michigan Men’s Conference) began in 2013 from a God given desire to provide a conference specifically intended for the everyday man. Mark Chanski was the 2013 speaker, followed by Greg Gilbert in 2014. This year it is our privilege to welcome Dr. Bruce Ware. Each year God has used the conference to build up men from Michigan and parts of the Midwest. We would love for you to join us this year as we “Behold the Glory of Christ.”
