Pictures for the message below....

After I posted the message from 3-29, someone asked me if I could include the pictures I talked about at the beginning of the message. So, here they are. #4 is a photoshop that I did myself, of myself as the new Presidential Press Secretary. Anyway, have fun with the rest of these, they're just some unbelievable things I found on the internet.





AND, by the way, I don't need any HATE-mail from any Cubs fans. I don't hate the Cubs, I don't really even dislike the Cubs. I just included that to irritate the Cubs fans in our congregation. I'm a Cincinnati Reds fan: I am NOT going to be making fun of anyone about being a loser. (However, my team HAS won a couple of World Series' in the last century....)

Unbelievable!

I preached this past Sunday (3-29-09) at First Christian Church in Flora, which is the congregation where I serve as Associate Minister. The message was kind of a follow up to the message from the previous week, which was shared by our other Associate Minister, Ben VanHyning. His message was on sexual purity, and included a Purity Pledge for teens, parents, and the Church body. I followed up with a message on purity, but my focus was not on sexual purity: it was on honesty and integrity within the body. I was pretty happy with how the message came out.

P.S.- Once again, the picture at the top of this post is the title slide I used in the presentation for this message. The titles slides I create (some of which you see on this blog) are all created using royalty free art and Photoshop Elements. If you want to use the image in your own church or another presentation, but would like to change the titles, names, dates, etc., I would be happy to send them to you in Photoshop format so you can manipulate them. I also might have something you haven't seen here which fits a theme you are using. Just email me at rcfcc@aol.com and let me know what you are interested in!

Daily Devotions

Our local radio station, WNOI 104 radio in Flora, has morning devotional thoughts each day provided by different ministers from the area. This week (3/9/09 - 3/13/09) I provided devotions. I recorded them in our building, saved them onto a CD, and took the CD to the station for the station manager to play each morning.

The devotions will be played between 8:45 and 9:00 am each day this week. You can listen to them "live" on WNOI by clicking the link above and then clicking on "listen live click here" near the top of the page. Or, you can click on the links below and listen to them directly from here. I'm getting ramped up for "March Madness," so the devotions this time have a sports flavor.

Monday (3/9)
Tuesday (3/10)
Wednesday (3/11)
Thursday (3/12)
Friday (3/13)

Give them a listen and let me know what you think!
