Some of you maybe you’ve never had a good church experience. My wife Liza makes this great dessert – called the blueberry. Once you’ve tasted it, you’ll keep coming back for more. Don’t just be content to go to church to sing the songs and hear the stories about what God did in the past, but rather

KENYA MIRACLE
There is a precious family in a certain church in Kenya. Years ago, when the mother and the two young daughters were saved, they were returning home after baptismal service. They were rejoicing as they approached the door. All were singing. The father was a fearful demon-possessed

Every day over 25,000 people die of hunger. That's over 1,000 people an hour. In other words, as many people die of hunger every hour as are killed in the world's deadliest wars in a year. One person every 3 seconds ... most often, children.
If the effects of death by famine in the world today were

IT'S NOT ABOUT REPENTANCE
Today it's not about repentance; it's about our feelings.
It's not about prayer; it's about going out for coffee.
It's not about revolution; it's about the status quo.
It's not about sanctification and righteousness; it's about making money.
It's not about

THE HEART OF A CHILD
Whatever you write on the heart of a child,
no water can wash away.
The sands may be shifted when billows are wild
and the efforts of time may decay.
Some stories may perish, some songs be forgot,
but this engraved record, time changes it not.
Whatever you write in the heart of

Rob Frazier, a contemporary Christian artist wrote a song titled, "He doesn’t want you better, He wants you deader"
Dead people don’t mind the pain, Don’t get offended so they never complain
They’re not concerned about personal gain, Does that sound like me or you?

ii. Be strong!
We are not here to play, to dream, to drift.
We have hard work to do and loads to lift.
Shun not the struggle,
face it: ’tis God’s gift.
Be strong!
Say not the days are evil. Who’s to blame?
And fold the hands and acquiesce, O shame!
Stand up, speak out
and bravely, in God’s

HOLY CHILD
Ah, dearest Jesus, holy Child,
Make thee a bed, soft, undefiled,
Within my heart, that it may be
A quiet chamber kept for Thee.
My heart for very joy doth leap,
My lips no more can silence keep,
I too must sing, with joyful tongue,
That sweetest ancient cradle song,
Glory to God

I was working with some particularly complex lab equipment last week, and it was not doing what I needed it to do. After I got it working, I realized that the words I was muttering under my breath as I struggled with it were not songs of thanksgiving. I won’t quote myself. But I am reminded by

Janet Paschal, a wonderful gospel singer wrote a song that includes these words…
“They said it wouldn’t last
Said God’s word would pass away into mere history
They thought the church He built would end
Replaced by modern times and trends
But countless generations proved again
His truth keeps on

2. The most poignant part of the musical is his relationship with Aldonza.
3. She was a woman of
