A Quick Check-In!

The Sunday Night Check-In for June 7th

It’s time for the Sunday Night Check-In! Welcome to new subscribers. We will be brief tonight, as we have a road trip tomorrow. Please pray for our safe journey to North Georgia for a week away.

One of my blessings this week has been the reviews for The Heavenward Trail. I think most authors publish their books and wonder if they will be meaningful to anyone else. I’m grateful to hear from others that the devotional companion to Colossians has been worthwhile for them. I have some copies in the church office if you are local. They are, of course, available on Amazon. All of my books are listed on the Hope Remains page on Substack, just click on the “books” tab (or click HERE).

FORSYTHE

At Forsythe Church this morning, I offered a message on “The Priesthood of Believers.” Notes and audio can be found HERE. We had a great fellowship meal after class today. (My friend Steven Clark Goad calls them ‘bellyship’ meals…which is triggering if not accurate!). We have a crew headed to Honduras for a mission trip tomorrow. We gathered them up and prayed for them this morning - and will keep on praying for them.

Next Sunday, Doug White will be bringing the message, and I know everyone will look forward to this. This month, we are collecting grippy socks and hard candy for the St. Francis Cancer Center. Our Amazon Wish List is HERE. If you are local, we would love for you to come and see what we are about.

READING

This week, I finished The Last Mandarin by Louise Penny and Melissa Fung. Outstanding international intrigue and a twisty plot involving US/China relations and Artificial Intelligence. It’s a great read. I also finished L. A. Dobbs’ Telling Lies: A Sam Mason K-9 Dog Mystery Book 1. Lucy the dog plays a pivotal role in this story that launches a series. I loved this story and especially that it was not graphic or filled with profanity. There are nine books in the series, so I’m ready to engage Book 2 - maybe while on vacation!

BACK YARD FLORA!

LISTENING

This song has been touching my heart lately. There are so many versions of this, and I have enjoyed several of them.

THANK YOU!

If you read this far, bless you! This night owl has done his work. Take care, friends. Work hard, smile often, rest well, and stay connected. The world needs you now more than ever! Until next time!
