Not so much for children whose "father" was an anonymous sperm sold to create a child he would never know or likely care to know. For them "Seed Provider’s Day" would be ...read more

    I want to begin this message called, “Gender Matters” with some ground rules and foundational points. 1. The topic we will be addressing may not be appropriate for younger children as I will be using terms some may not be ready to hear. 2. Normally, I like hearing “amens” when I’m preaching but ...read more

    This message is dedicated to the memory of my deceased great-aunt, Adelia Miller. Aunt Dedie loved to tell how, when she was a little girl going to the Sunday School at the Cloverport Baptist Church in Breckenridge County, Kentucky, the pastor had all the children in Sunday School one day.
