Tell The Story
April 13, 2013
In an interview with Wired magazine, filmmaker George Lucas was asked how he wanted to be remembered. He replied: “I’ll be remembered as a filmmaker. . . . Hopefully some of the stories I told will still be relevant. . . . If you’ve raised children, you know you have to explain things to them, and if you don’t, they end up learning the hard way. . . . So the old stories have to be reiterated again in a form that’s acceptable to each new generation. I don’t think I’m ever going to go much beyond the old stories, because I think they still need to be told.”
In Psalm 78, the psalmist was aware of the possibility of God’s mighty works being forgotten and a generation being lost, so he called God’s people to never tire of telling the old story of His redemptive acts to future generations (v.4). The goal of this perpetual rehearsing of their history wasn’t just for memorizing historical data; it was to inspire faith, obedience, and hope in the Lord (v.7) and to keep future generations from groping in the darkness of unbelief and rebellion like the generations before them (v.8).
Because of God’s mighty power and grace in our lives we desire to be faithful to tell His stories that we might inspire faith and obedience in future generations.
I love to tell the story,
For some have never heard
The message of salvation
From God’s own holy Word. —Hankey
Past stories of grace inspire future stories of faith.
Read: Psalm 78:1-8

I have fought a good fight,
I have finished my course,
I have kept the faith.
2 Timothy 4:7 (KJV)
"Arm yourselves, and be ye men of valour, and be in readiness for the conflict; for it is better for us to perish in battle than to look upon the outrage of our nation and our altar. As the Will of God is in Heaven, even so let it be." (1 Maccabees 3:58–60)
Eternal Father, Strong to Save

Rest in Peace, fallen brother, rest in peace!
We who remain hold you in high honor.
Rest, fallen brother, in this sacred precinct;
We who remain keep this place sacred.
Rest, fallen brother, among these, your comrades;
We who remain keep the watch.
Rest, fallen brother, amid these who heeded the Nation’s call;
We who remain press the fight forward in your name.
Rest, fallen brother, lay down thy burden;
We who remain have taken up the torch.
Rest in Peace, fallen brother, rest in eternal peace!

ROCKUMENTARY: APRIL 13, 1971Where were you on Tuesday, April 13, 1971?
In six weeks I would get a degree in chemistry that I would never use, and an hour earlier I would get two butterbars pinned on my shoulder, making me a second lieutenant – an officer and a gentleman – in the Army Signal Corps. Then what? It was one of those moments when you peer ahead and don’t know what is going to happen.
Let’s cue the Rockumentary theme!
San Remo Golden Strings: “Festival Time”
They were a one-hit wonder, and I always thought the song was about smoking weed in a railroad station. It came in at #10 this week.
Brewer & Shipley: “One Toke Over the Line”
