Oh, Baby!

Oh, Baby! by Phil It may be hard to believe, but since I’ve become a grandpa, there are more than a few photos of my handsome grandson on my phone. For years, people have shown me pictures of their kids and grandkids, and I’m always quick to compliment. But let’s be honest, some of those youngun’s ain’t gonna win no beauty contests, ya know what I mean? That may be where the phrase, “a face only a mother could love” was born. In that way, Moms are a lot like God. “The Lord doesn’t see things the way you see them. People judge by outward appearance, but the Lord looks at the heart.” - 1 Samuel 16:7. Even the kindest, sweetest mother can instantly turn into “mama bear” when one of her kids is injured or offended. The offense may not be directed at her, but it hurts her just the same. God is like that, too. Sometimes we forget that every person we meet is one of God's children. How we treat them directly reflects on our relationship with Him. As we read in Matthew 25:40, "as you did it to one of the least of these my brothers, you did it to me." I heard someone say, "Don't mistreat one of my kids and expect to have a good relationship with me." We can all relate to that statement. Let's keep that in mind in our daily interactions with God's kids. When we show love to them (even the difficult ones!) we are showing that love to God.

Q and A, The Old-Fashioned Way by Phil Have you ever heard the phrase, "Throw out the baby with the bath water?" Sometimes in our quest to be more efficient or accurate, we discard some pretty useful stuff. For example... Many more "liturgical" denominations use catechisms. Before you pick up your “we only use the Bible” stones to throw my direction, catechisms are merely a teaching tool for explaining Christian doctrine, often in the form of a series of questions and answers. Sort of a...
Repurposed by Phil At the beginning of this month, we sold our equipment trailer. A couple of years ago, we upgraded to a new, more compact sound system that fits right in the back of our Honda CR-V, so the trailer had been sitting idle for quite a while. Still, parting with it was bittersweet. We bought that trailer when we relaunched our ministry 25 years ago, and it accompanied us across the country for more miles than I care to remember. It holds a lot of memories. The good news is that a...
WELCOME TO SUMMER! We pray you had a wonderful celebration of our nation's 250th birthday and still have all your fingers (or at least the same number you had last week!). We mentioned earlier in the year that we would be keeping a light touring schedule this summer because of upcoming family events, but that doesn't mean we haven't been busy! Here's a snapshot of the happenings around here. Pam's mom has moved into a senior community - twice! The facility is beautiful and the waiting list so...
