Update on Isaac Tinch

On August 14, 2010 I sent out a special prayer request for Isaac Tinch, whose family are members of our church at Rickman, Tennessee. The prognosis was grave as he was life-flighted to Vanderbilt Children's Hospital to be treated for severe blunt-force trauma to his head. The situation was grave and the doctors, nurses and technicians work around the clock to treat him. Their efforts were heroic as usual...yet, the prayers of the saints went up from around the world.

Today, I visited with Isaac and his family and learned of his pending release. Tomorrow is his birthday, and it appears he will be able to spend it with his family at home. I watched as he walked, talked and interacted with his family and the staff. As I anointed him with oil and prayed for him, he smiled and seems to be on his way to a total recovery.

His parents are so thrilled, as are we.

Thank you to all of those who prayed for Isaac, and I ask that you continue to pray. We are part of a wonderful family!

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...
