Bishop Allen Davis

A few-days ago, I made a quick post about the declining health of Bishop Allen Davis, former State Overseer and father of our Chief Financial Officer, Sister Londa Richardson. I have seen him twice in the last three days, but because of my need to return to the state office, I am unable to visit today. I just ended a conversation with Londa a moment ago to get an update.

Londa spent the night with him at the hospital and was unable to get much rest because of the constant interaction with the medical staff and her father. She needs sleep.

During this time of uncertainty with Brother Davis, I am asking you pray for Londa and the rest of the family. They have been an outstanding example of caring for aging parents, first with Dwight's parents, then Sister MIldred Davis and now Bishop Allen Davis.

Would you please take a few moments today and pray for strength for their bodies, and courage to their hearts and minds? Would you pray for the Presence of the Holy Spirit, whom the scriptures describes as our "Comforter."

I know that Tennessee and beyond love Londa and her family, and appreciate their hard work and sacrifice for so many years. Right now they need us to lift them up in prayer support.

If you would like to send a card or note, please send it to our Cleveland Post Office Box;

May God bless and keep you

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
