Today, the pressure to fill auditoriums and services has driven many pastors to place the felt needs, or tastes, of the people above their duty to Christ. On every hand we hear of the Gospel being molded into a non-confrontative message intended to meet felt needs and impress the sinful heart. And, by most standards, this new philosophy of church life is working, as more and more auditoriums are filled with people hungry for a message that will affirm that they are actually on fairly good terms with the Almighty. But the biblical message is the message of the cross. It cuts right across the grain of the modern age's preoccupation with pride, tearing down the façade and exposing the wretchedness of the human heart… Unfortunately, while the modern “un-gospel” may fill seats, it is the true gospel of sin and grace that is “the power of God unto salvation” (Rom. 1:16).

I may have already mentioned, but when dh and I went to the lake on May 21 for our anniversary on the 22nd, he had to brush ICE off the boat that morning 🙂 The lake is about 2 1/2 hours from us and at a much lower elevation, but the water was only 55 degrees. I think the air temp hit high 80s while we were there, but it wasn't overly hot.
Oh, a belated happy anniversary to Heather and Tom! I believe your anniversary was around ours.
We are still having cooler temps and some rain. We haven't even set up our pool yet as it's been cloudy and cool. There are lots of apples on our trees but just a few cherries. Frost got our pears and peaches AGAIN. Kids are busy and doing well. 
Hope you are all having a wonderful summer!

Well I am sure everyone's frost is gone. Some of us

to much wetter conditions. Lisa, are the fruits

still growing? I see very large strawberries but

the are green. More rain than sin and heat to turn

them.  I belittle green beads hoping to become

blueberries too.

And to hear of a new worship sanctuary!  How

wonderful! May God bless this new home of worship

and believers!

Oh, Bonnie!  Ten wonderful g.grandchildren! 🙂

As far as here,we are soon to be empty nesters.  My

youngest is getting the key to her first home this

weekend.  Only 20!  We are very proud if her. That

is three of four owning their own homes.  My oldest

is still out there struggling for himself but is at

least trying to do it on his own. Holding a job and

room of his own for a while now.

How's the homesteading front?
