My 3 yr old twin boys were playing on a playgound one day & made friends with an older boy who was around 10 yrs old. Of course I began to make small talk w/the young lad as well. Like any mountain boy he was full of energy & charisma. After talking to him a few minutes I ask him if he was saved. He said well I guess I’ve been saved a few times. I then began to converse with him on his level about Salvation of the Lord & how it truly only happens once, but has to be done when the Holy Ghost is drawing. I asked him if he still went to church. He said, "No I’ve tried church it’s just not my thing anymore". My heart broke! How could a 10 yr. old boy say such a thing. After thinking on his reply he simply had a bad experience. I see why some kids feel this way. They are simply in a dead church. So many people go to dead churches today and end up quiting in their Christian life b/c they are not being fed the truth. My friend if ever my eyes were open to society and how hugry they are for truth my eyes were open that day. With tears in my eyes on that playground I said, " Lord please help me always to Preach with unction so life can be offered to a dying world, and to keep my children close to you by instilling in them the Gospel where they can never say like that little boy it’s just not for me".

Blessed,
