David’s Daily Devotion for June 4

June 4, 2024 - Good Morning! It's Tuesday, June 4.

Vacation Bible School at First Baptist Center got off to a great start yesterday - lots of kids, lots of excitement.  During the remainder of this busy week, I'll be sharing some of my favorite Bible verses, maybe some will be your favorites, too.

2 Corinthians 5:17 - If anyone is in Christ, they are a new creation; the old is gone, the new has come.

Matthew 11:28 - Come unto me, all ye who are weary and heavy laden, and I will give you rest.

David’s Daily Devotion for June 3

June 3, 2024 - Good Morning! It's Monday, June 3.

Today is opening day for Vacation Bible School at First Baptist Center. It's going to be a busy week!  It's going to be a blessing! And of all the VBS activities, perhaps the one that's the biggest blessing . . . is scripture memorization. I have no doubt that some of the verses that are firmly implanted in my brain were ones that I learned as a child - at Vacation Bible School!

David's Daily Devotion for May 30

May 30, 2024 - Good Morning! It's Thursday, May 30.

I continue today with a brief series on stories behind favorite children's gospel songs, as my church prepares for next week's Vacation Bible School.

Herbert Woolston was a pastor, a writer, a gospel song composer... and a magician. That last one kind of came out of left field, didn't it? Woolston was all about keeping his audience's attention. And so, he would incorporate sleight-of-hand into his sermons. Fun!

This morning, we start a three-day series on stories behind vintage children's church songs.

David's Daily Devotion for May 28

May 28, 2024 - Good Morning! It's Tuesday, May 28.

On May 28, 1936, something radical happened that would change the world. Alan Mathison Turing, a 23-year-old student at Cambridge University in England, published a paper titled "On Computable Numbers." In this paper he described a device that would come to be called "The Turing Machine." We have a different name for it today... the computer.

David's Daily Devotion for May 27

May 27, 2024 - Good Morning! It's Monday, May 27.

Today at 11AM our community will gather at our historic courthouse to commemorate Memorial Day. A program of music and presentations and traditions will be hosted by our VFW in the courtroom. At the close the crowd will move to the flag plaza for the playing of Taps. A memorable moment. A time to remember.
