This week, we wrapped up our series, Generations, by talking to the Boomer and Builder Generations. These folks have had many years to learn and grown and have their cups filled to the brim. They are ready to be poured out. This fact powerfully shapes what they most need to hear in order to get their journeys with Jesus right in their current season of life.

For something so apparently simple, though, it does quite a lot of unique and important things. Water is sometimes called the universal solvent. It can dissolve more substances than anything else on earth. Most substances contract, or become smaller when they freeze. Water expands, causing its solid state density to be somewhat lower than when it’s a liquid. Practically speaking, this means that ice floats which is why life can continue in lakes and the ocean in cold environments. One more amazing property is water’s surface cohesion. That means it sticks to itself. In fact, it sticks to itself better than most other substances do.
