Men Prepare Sermons; God Prepares Men

2nd Timothy 2:15

"The proper place for a ship to be is in the water, but if the water gets into the ship, the ship will sink. The proper place for the church is in the world,

BUT IF THE 'WORLD' GETS INTO THE CHURCH,

THE CHURCH WILL GO DOWN IN DISGRACE!"

Thank you for taking the time to view our blog;we look forward to reading your comments. DVDs of our services are available upon request. We covet your prayers and friendship. In His Service and For His Glory, Pastor Bill & Kathy ...
"Now fear the Lord and serve Him with all faithfulness...But if serving the LORD seems undesirable to you, then choose for yourselves this day whom you will serve...But as for me and my household, we will serve the LORD."-Joshua 24:14-15

Is God Calling You to be a Pastor?

The right kind of education is essential to the man who has answered God's call. No army dare send a soldier into battle without proper training. The results would be devastating, not only for the warrior, but for the war.

As we head West, and into Illinois, the weather seems to

be starting to close in on us…

A dinner meeting with Kathy’s cousin Jeff and his wife Nancy had to be postponed, as we pulled into a rest area . We watched a very heavy thunder-storm, with lots of wind, and a possible tornado pass over..

We did make it to dinner, but, one hour late. We had a wonderful visit with Jeff and Nancy. We took advantage of the weather, to have a long visit. As enjoyable as this was, after a couple of hours, it was time to move along… On into Bloomington/Normal, Ill, about an additional 120 miles where we had motel reservations for the night.
