Wrapping up the week - prayer request

Dear Friends,

I know that many of you check the blog on a daily basis, and it has been a couple of days since I posted. First of all, I apologize for the delay, its been "one more weekend."

As you know I was with the Petros and Oliver Springs churches last week in a six-day series of revival services that was well attended by the surround churches. Toward the end of the week, we were blessed by some from Crab Orchard, Sunbright, as well as the other churches already mentioned. Special thanks to the effort.

When the service ended on Friday night, I drove straight home, needing to catch up on work and apparently picked up a case of "food poisoning" somewhere along the way. I was really out of it from late Friday night (well actually up most of the night) and again on Sunday.

Sunday morning, Deb and I went to the Collinwood church where Steve and Lisa Boshers serve, and we had a great service, along with a nice meal afterwards. During the service, we had six receive the Lord and I administered the covenant of membership to four new members. This visit had been planned for some time, so we made the trip even though I probably wasn't up to it physically. At any rate, thank God for the folks saved, and for the new members of our church.

Today, I am feeling some better, and trying to recover. Tennessee Ladies Day is this weekend, and I don't want to miss it.

I would appreciate your prayers for physical healing in my body. May God bless!

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
