I am happy to report that nearly 20 years after accidently taping over one of my father's favorite movies, Fighter Squadron -- a nearly impossible movie to get a hold of -- Spotsy has redeemed herself and taped a commercial free edition off of Turner Classic Movies. Whew! Two decades of complaining have finally come to an end.
God Bless our Troops, Veterans, and their loved ones!
Thank you for all you do for this country.

Marching Into A Closet
A bishop must be blameless, as a steward of God. —Titus 1:7
|
Author and pastor Stuart Briscoe writes about a funeral for a war veteran in which the man's military buddies had a role in the service. The friends requested that the minister lead them to the casket for a moment of silence. They would then follow the pastor out a side door.
The plan was carried out with military precision—until the minister marched them into a broom closet. The soldiers had to make an awkward retreat.
That pastor made an honest mistake, but it illustrates that leaders must know where they are going. As go the leaders, so go the followers.
The apostle Paul left Titus on the island of Crete to establish a witness for Jesus Christ. Titus was to appoint leaders for the growing band of believers. Except for preaching the gospel, nothing Titus did for the Christians on Crete was more important than finding the right leadership for them.
Church leaders are to meet the standards set forth in Titus 1:6-9 and guide others to greater maturity in their relationship with Christ. And followers must lovingly hold their spiritual leaders accountable to those goals.
Whether you're leading or following, know where you're going—or you may end up in a closet. —Haddon Robinson
Before you follow a leader,
Check his beliefs, and pray;
Be sure he's following Jesus,
And that he knows the way. —Hess
The only leader worth following is one who is following Christ.
