Special Prayer Request - Bishop Franklin R. Massengale

As I write, our pastor at Clinton, Tennessee, Brother Russell Massengale is in the Critical Care Unit of a hospital in Oak Ridge. He needs your prayers. The lack of information prevents me from posting more, however, I have been in contact with the family every 45 minutes.

Please take a moment right now to pray for this man of God, who has pastored the Clinton church for over almost 35 years.

Please pray for my pastor. He is a true man of God. His sermons has touched my heart each and every service. I have never seen a more humble, caring, loving pastor as he is. I have been going to the Clinton Church Of God Of Proghecy for about three years now, and have felt the presence of God in each service, My pastor is a Shepherd that cares for his flock. Please pray God will touch him and bring him to a full recovery. Thanks, Kathy

I am so priviledged to have Bro. Massengale as my pastor. I have attended the Church Of God Of Prohecy for three years, and you could not ask for a more humble man of God. He is such a loving Shepherd to all who enter, he is so caring and kind to everyone. I appreciate his stand for the Lord and his messages he brings from God's word. Please pray for him. God is still on the throne and in the healing business. He can restore him back to health. Remember the family also as they are at the hospital, that God will comfort and give them strength as they are there with Bro. Massengale. Kathy Carter

Come Down From That Ivory Tower

Hebrews 11 has become known as the "Hall of Faith." The reason is quite simple. The writer spends a great deal of time giving a role call of the heroes of the faith. After all, this chapter is about faith, and what better way to teach faith than to illustrate with some real-life examples. Mos of the people in this chapter are well-known, at least by anyone who spent time squirming in a Sunday School class as a small child, or who watched the late-night movies on the local channels featuring their stories. Who were they? Abel, Enoch and Noah. Abel pleased God with his excellent offering, Enoch was so close to God that he actually walked with God to the point that one evening, while walking God said to Enoch, "we are closer to my house than we are yours, so why don't you just go home with me?" Of course, Noah built an ark (according to God's instructions) that saved mankind from total destruction. Then there was Abraham...the father of the faithful. He...

A new convert?

I just learned, that we may have converted a "roll-tide" Alabama fan! You decide.

It's not what I do...It's who I am

Yesterday an incident happened that brought to a profound realization of what being a minister is all about. I must first begin by saying I found myself in a place I had not intention of being...that it was a split-second decision that took me to Barnes and Noble in the town where I live. Secondly, I need to tell you a story...hopefully not a long one, but at least to the point. Here are the basics; Yesterday morning I had a full day planned. This is not so unusual but the way it unfolded led me to what I like to call a "Divine appointment." I started out my morning at Vanderbilt University Hospital with a visit to one of our friends who had been taken there in the middle of the night by ambulance. He had been in the emergency room all night long and his family waited anxiously to hear a diagnosis from the doctors. You see, Bill had a recent surgery for a brain tumor and after some days at home suffered a blood clot in his lung. Of course the doctors were concerned wi...
