January 17, 2025 - Good Morning! It’s Friday, January 17.
I grew up in a family that loved to play games - Monopoly, Dominoes, 42, an odd French card game called Mille Borne. But our all-time favorite was Scrabble. Over 150 million sets have been sold. One third of American families have one in their house. You can buy it on over 30 languages. And on this date in 1955, Mattel introduced Scrabble to the world.
To be good at Scrabble you have to be good at spelling. The Bible has many words that are challenging to spell. Here’s a spiritual spelling test, to end this winter week, and to take you into the weekend. I’ve included the correct answers - spelled backwards. No peeking!
Gold, Frankincense, and _________ (hrrym)
The “wee little man” who climbed the tree ____________ (sueahccaz)
Shadrach, Meshach, and ______________ (ogendeba)
Jesus prayed in the Garden of _______________ (enameshteg)
Peter, James, and John fished on the Sea of ____________ (eelilag)
The method by which Jesus was executed ______________ (noixificurc)
A Pharisees who helped to bury Jesus ______________ (sumedocin)
Good luck!
Meet you back here on Monday,
David
