DIOCLETIAN
In its first 300 hundred years the Christian church endured repeated waves of persecution. But perhaps the worst came while Diocletian was emperor of Rome (A.D.284-305).

I love the entry in his diary where he says, "And today I submitted to be even more vile: I descended to the level of field preaching."
In essence, what Wesley did was take the church beyond the walls. To do that he preach out in the open—something was seen as heresy by the church leaders of his

Prudentius (c. 348-after 405)
His power and miracles proclaim him God.
I see the wild winds suddenly grow calm
When Christ commands; I see the storm-tossed sea
Grow smooth, with tranquil surface bright
At Christ’s behest; I see the waves grow firm
As the raging flood sustains his treading feet

In Spain in the 11th century, the following hymn, Adon Olam [Lord of the World], was sung in Jewish synagogues:
Lord of the world-he reigned alone
While yet the universe was naught,
When by his will all things were wrought,
Then first his sovereign Name was known.
And, when the all shall cease to

It is a funny thing I have observed about boys. They love to do things, and they especially love to do what ever they see their fathers doing. They want to help. And the wise father will figure out a way to let the son help out in some way that is consistent with his age and skill level.
I saw

A Little Child is Watching Me
A little child is watching me
Knows every move I make,
Hears every word I utter,
Sees every step I take.
Is conscious of my attitude,
Is wise to all my flaws,
Is witness when I am unkind,
Or angry without cause.
She silently observes me
As I go from day to
