Oh my. What in the world do these places use? That is crazy. I too am flabbergasted! That is one reason why I make sure and bring my Bible in to church even though they have outlines and overhead projections etc. I want to hold on to the rope so to speak and make that statement, plus there is just something about holding and reading our own Bibles, underlining and taking notes if we're able. <br /><br />I'll have to share some stories about Al and how nurturing he was, he was soooo precious, many a day I miss him.<br /><br />Thanks so much Laurie for stopping by...I enjoyed your comment, it's sad but true...I've heard similar and seen the symptoms, oh it is frightening. <br /><br />Loves to you dear Laurie!Ameliahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09093408888499365118noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1469962485360170433.post-83536680228021151002014-03-11T16:08:07.428-05:002014-03-11T16:08:07.428-05:00What an awesome video!

We hear stories from new people at our church about how they are so relieved our pastor preaches from the Bible, because the churches they have been in didn't! As many times as I've heard that now, it still is flabbergasting to me!<br /><br />And how lovely to read about Al. What a dear man he must have been and what an impact he obviously had on your lives. God is good.<br /><br />Love you! :)Lauriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10675855582656951852noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1469962485360170433.post-59904565967815488392014-03-11T11:21:41.250-05:002014-03-11T11:21:41.250-05:00Hi Jana!

It makes me wonder how many times that happens to people. Oh the joys of technology! *big smile* Thanks so much for re-commenting, I hope you copied and pasted. It seems everytime I forget to copy and paste, *poof* goes my comment! Aagh! <br /><br />I really appreciate your comment and what you have to say here, it really is frightening sometimes isn't it? I sit in these churches and look at the light show type of atmosphere, or perhaps the cool-cat dress of the pastor...and it really makes me sad. It makes me sad because of the *reason* they are doing all of it, to fit in with culture, a culture that is not good! We did attend a sweet little church last Sunday I must say, there are a few (very few) that are holding on it seems thank the Lord but then we deal with doctrines and such. But if they really love the Lord and love God, hate sin then maybe???<br /><br />I'm so glad you *see* it too. The video clip makes me want to tear up almost everytime I see it. If you go to sermonindex.net? You can find lots of good sermons by Carter Conlon and others, they even have some old Tozer and Ravenhill.<br /><br />You are a precious gem to me Jana, what a sweetheart you are! Great to connect like old times! Yes indeedie! : ) xxxooo Love, Amelia <br /><br />Ameliahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09093408888499365118noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1469962485360170433.post-49953742779521278792014-03-10T21:55:02.696-05:002014-03-10T21:55:02.696-05:00I posted a comment but I'm not sure if it work...I posted a comment but I'm not sure if it worked, so just in case it didn't, I'll try again. I just want to tell you how much I appreciate your posts. This video is spot on....powerful, and what we need to hear and you are so right. People need to be warned! Thank you for speaking out and sharing this. I appreciate your prophet's heart very much. It's so true that most churches don't even crack open a Bible these days. They are so shallow and entertaining and it's grievous. It hurts my heart. This is a wicked world in which we live and there are so many lost in it that need to know the truth. Bless you, my sweet friend! You are truly a blessing and I'm so grateful to have reconnected with you.

He was generous and humble although one of the most talented sculptors and artists ever. He sculpted Dr. Denton Cooley's monument, ironically he never did one for himself so we had to pick one he had already done that we thought he would like. Life is so crazy Carmen.. Just so crazy.<br /><br />I will have to write some more Al stories because I know you for one will love them.<br /><br />I appreciate you Carmen so very much, I'm so sorry your computer crashed, I didn't know it crashed. That is so aggravating when that happens.<br /><br />So glad the devotion time info helped, there is probably so much I could write on that too, maybe I should write more on a blog one day! : )<br /><br />I hope you are doing well, I need to get over to your blog!Ameliahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09093408888499365118noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1469962485360170433.post-84369328312054525222014-03-06T16:40:29.023-06:002014-03-06T16:40:29.023-06:00Awww...

You would sing going "Aw aw oh, aw, aw oh".. very cute. Al would sing with you. <br /><br />After he passed away you were walking and would go up to silver haired men at the grocery store wanting them to hold you. Broke my heart, it even made our pediatrician cry when I told him. <br /><br />Yes. We will see Al again...and that comforts me greatly. He would be so flabbergasted in this nutso world but I know he would still speak softly and kindly as always...as always...It took a lot to miff him bless his heart...Most of the time we really got each other but I'm sure there were a few times he must of thought I was a young-dumb-dunderhead.<br /><br /><3 Love him dearly.Ameliahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09093408888499365118noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1469962485360170433.post-4830982446673329062014-03-05T20:07:49.021-06:002014-03-05T20:07:49.021-06:00Aww!

He sounds like a sweet man. <br /><br />Beautiful Post! <br />I finally have my blog and computer up and running again. It was so sporadic and I was having to use my Beloved's computer there for a bit when my computer crashed. <br /><br />Thanks for the sweet email on the subject of Children's devotion time.
