                    Tommy Tenney, in his new book tells this story.
	He believes that God spoke to him and said, “You know, Tommy, your favorite worship services and My favorite services are not the same.  You leave you services full and satisfied, but when you leave, I’m still hungry.”
	He writes, “God whispered this
