    A certain man went to Church one Sunday. He frowned when the organist missed a note during the opening hymn.

    Contributed by Don Hawks on Aug 10, 2008

    I need not be afraid though all hell should break loose. Why? Because “God’s Spirit doesn’t make cowards out of us. The Spirit gives us power, love, and self-control” (2 Timothy 1:7, CEV).

Some people have interpreted the story as giving us a lesson about needing to take risks in life. One preacher made that the topic of his ...read more

    Service with a smile—it makes a difference not only in the person who is served but also in the one who serves.

    When you go to a restaurant to eat does it make a difference to you if the server offers a smile or not? I think most of us respond better to service with a smile.
