PLANS: God laughs. "Silas Marner." "Lord willing." Five Tribes.

This is the last episode of Season 5 – thanks to everyone for coming along for the ride. Getting ready for Season 6 has gotten me in the mood to talk about planning. This week we’ll discuss how our plans bring out God’s sense of humor; how God’s planning process and ours don’t always coincide; why we say “Lord willing” when we pray, and what we should mean when we do; and three different ways to plan a path to victory.
