Lets become like kids
Tuesday, Erica got a call from one of Kennady’s teachers saying she needed some financial help with bills. Erica said, “sure” and then proceeded to think of a way to come up with the money. She thought, “it would be great if we had it just laying around.” About that time, Jude walked into the room with some change in his hand and said, “mom, lets give this money to Kennady’s teacher so that she can buy food.”
Erica had not told Jude anything before this.
Erica could not believe what she was hearing. They went into Jude’s room and looked at his coin jar and she said, “Do you want to give this to Kennady’s teacher?” Jude replied, “Yeah, sure.” There was a lot of money in that jar. She proceeded to tell him about how God was going to bless him.
Of course, Jude doesn’t know the value of money, but that is the point. God told him to do something and he said, “yeah, sure.”

Our Queen
In a culture where we are quick to reveal the flaws of our youth, I want to take the opportunity to flaunt the opposite. One of our own, Niki Sullivan, was crowned Homecoming Queen of Lehman High School 2007! Niki is an outstanding example for others to follow. She has a beautiful smile and it is obvious that her light is shining brightly at Lehman.
Congratulations, Niki. We are proud of you!

Thank You
Erica and I are extremely grateful for our nomination of “Pastor of the Day”. Thank you for thinking of us. We love you all so much. To Jerry Cole, Joshua Carpenter, my parents, and everyone else (I don’t even know everyone) that helped us get a ramp and tie-downs for Kennady, we are extremely grateful to you! You will never know the struggle and embarrassment that you have saved us from.

Everything is for God
Why does God forgive your sins?
because You deserve it? No.
because He is a good God? No.
because He loves you? No.
because He gets glory from it? Yes.
Isaiah 43:25 “I, even I, am he who blots out your transgressions, for my own sake, and remembers your sins no more.”
Even forgiveness is not about ‘you’. It is about God. He gets the benefit of your purity. He gets your communion with Him. He loves being with you that much. That makes me love Him even more.
