Special Prayer Requests

This morning I met with Sister Wonnie Weakley, Jeff and Regina Cassidy to begin preparation for the visitation and funeral services for Bishop Eugene Weakley. You will see the arrangements in an earlier post.

After that meeting, I went to St. Thomas hospital in Nashville and prayed with Sister Darlene Bagley, a retired minister's wife and with Sister Billie Hill, wife of Burns pastor, Tony Hill.

I then traveled to Centennial Hospital to visit Pastor Bary Ray (Rickman). Just as I was going up the elevator to his room, I received a call from Pastor Ray that he had been released and was on his way home.

I then made the short trip over to Vanderbilt Hospital where I visited with Bill Stockham, International Prayer Coordinator and had prayer for him.

Then on to Lebanon for a meeting with the church.

I just returned home a few-minutes-ago and thought I would make a quick post to share these special prayer requests with you and learned that retired minister, Bishop Esque Green passed away today at Crab Orchard.

Thank you for helping me pray as we rally around our folks. God bless.

Bishop McKinley--Thank you again for your visits and prayers for the Stockhams. It means so much to have visits from pastors/pastoral leaders when loved ones are in the hospital or in need of prayer. Thank you. When I arrived this afternoon you were in the hospital room and when I left at 7:00ish your son and daughter-n-law were there. How wonderful to be a part of the Body of Christ!! I will continue to pray for you and Sister McKinley in the days ahead. The Lord will continue to annoint you to be his mouthpiece to bring peace and comfort to Sister Weakley and others.

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
