Poem called Hope
It’s magic and it’s free. It’s not in a prescription. It’s not in an IV. It punctuates our laughter, it sparkles in our tears. It simmers under sorrows, and dissipates our fears. Do you know what Hope is? It’s reaching past today. It’s dreaming of tomorrow. It’s trying a

Steve Bouman tells the story We began to find our power as a congregation in New Jersey as a matter of being a place where you can go when there’s no where else to go. When you invite the poor and the homeless, they do come such as Edgar. He is by anybody’s standards a strange character. He lives

The Sunday School teacher was extremely enthusiastic. She looked at the class of four-years olds and asked this question: “Does anyone know what today is?”
A little girl held up her finger and said, “Yes today is Palm Sunday.” “That’s fantastic!” the teacher replied. “Does anyone know what next

POEM: Daddy’s Table Grace
As we sit at the table,
Our family’s head bowed low;
My thoughts return to childhood
And the finest man I know.
He didn’t speak good English;
He was just a simple man,
But when he was talking to the Lord,
Even a little child could understand.
I was young and

What Have We Learned?
They shouted with praises, reaching the sky,
Pushing and shoving to see Jesus pass by.
Crying, “Hosanna, glory to the King!’
He comes to us today, great joy He doth bring."
They threw down palm leaves, covering the way,
Making a clear path for Him to travel that

B. Poem: MORE THAN A MOTHER
When God set the world in place,
when He hung the stars up in space,
when He made the land and the sea,
then He made you and me.
He sat back and saw all that was good,
He saw things to be as they should.
Just one more blessing He had in store;
He created a mother, but

POEM: DON’T QUIT
When things go wrong as they sometime will,
when the road your trudging seems all up hill,
When funds are low and debts are high,
and you want to smile but you have to sigh,
When care is pressing you down a bit
rest if you must but please

The penetrating message was caught in a poem written by an unknown confederate soldier, who finally learned the lesson of the thorn.
I asked God for strength that I might achieve.
I was made weak that I might learn humbly to obey.
I asked God for health that I might do greater things.
I was given

POEM: G. K. Chesterton said:
O God of earth and altar,
Bow down and hear our cry,
Our earthly rulers falter,
Our people drift and die,
The walls of gold entomb us,
The swords of scorn divide,
Take not Thy thunder from us,
But take away our pride.
From all that terror teaches,
From lies of tongue

When things go wrong as they sometimes will;
When the road you’re trudging seems all uphill;
When the funds are low, and the debts are high;
And you want to smile, but have to sigh;
When care is pressing you down a bit-
Rest if you must, but don’t you quit.
Success is failure turned inside

There is a poem entitled “A Prayer For the Future” quoted by Sir Frances Drake, it said and I quote,
Disturb us, Lord, when we are too well pleased with ourselves, when our dreams have come true because we have dreamed too little, when we arrive safely because we have sailed too close to the
