Biker Ministry Pt. 2

Here are a some pictures that Pastor Neon sent of his recent biker event!

Biker Ministry

We have had a great response on the show to Biker Ministries. Apparently, a lot of you ride motorcycles! Today, Pastor Neon talked about the Harley event his chapter participated in Saturday. If you want to know more about starting or joining a chapter, please email Pastor Neon at trcmcneon@aol.com. If you want to know more about the ministry, click here.

We enjoy hearing about your ministries and your interests. If we have not talked about the way you minister to the lost, please let us know!

Memories

We here at "Mornings" were sad to hear of the death of Dennis' father, Conrad. Our regular listeners and viewers have come to know Dennis' voice when he calls from Indiana. We'd followed his father, Conrad's, story. The accident, the burns, the loss of his legs and, ultimately, his journey home. Naturally, as Christians, we know there's reason to celebrate, too. But we certainly remember our friend, Dennis, as his family and pray for their emotional strength. If you watch or listen to the program tomorrow (June 6th), we'll giveaway a special FamilyNet DVD recalling the D-Day invasion. It's a poignant retelling of that history-altering event from survivors who, even after all these years, still feel personal loss as they relive those vivid, indellible, images. We'll give them out to callers as long as the supply lasts. And, in so doing, we pay tribute to a unique generation of Americans which, for a second time, rescued the world from a tyrant. Not many remain. Fewer every day. But the memory of D-Day and what it accomplished will last forever. Remember to thank every man and woman in uniform for their service on this D-Day anniversary.--Larry

Sunshine All Dressed Up

Shirley has shared more precious pictures of her dog, Sunshine. And taking a cue from Larry's suggestion that Sunshine really looks like Winston Churchill, Shirley found a cigar!

Prayer Answered

I received this email from Phil Boatwright, our Christian Film Critic, last week. He gave me permission to share it with you. If you were listening to him a few weeks ago, you know that he'd had a car accident.

"The Lord took care of everything. It all fit together so easily. The car insurance company paid me more than I thought I’d get, my boss sent my check early so I could make up the remainder of my down payment, the financing went through with a breeze, the car was at a sales price, each of the places I went to were close to one another, and I was able to return the rental car directly across the street from the car dealership.

"Though most of you probably have more expensive cars, I’ve got On Star in mine! And it’s free for a year!! I swear, this thing does everything. If I can just get a girl, it’ll do the proposing. It really is amazing. It’s like out of Flash Gordon.

"When I prayed, I wasn’t sure if I was going to be able to get a new car. I just asked the Lord to provide a car that I felt safe in and that would be comfortable for the Old Ones. I care for my parents and have to take them everywhere now, so a four door was in order. Well, I got one. A new one.

"I’m telling you all this because even though life seems to be a series of trials, the Lord does intercede. And though we are attacked by the enemy, our Heavenly Father is ultimately in charge and won’t desert us. I’m assured that He is with us even in those times when He seems so still. I’m sure you’ve had spiritual moments when you just knew God was involved. That was my day, yesterday. It’s sometimes difficult to convince others that those moments are indeed governed by Heavenly leadership. But inside we know that it was Him.

"I am also convinced that your prayers were very much a part of this equation. I asked a few of you to pray for me and you did. The Lord heard those prayers. Some of you emailed me back, saying, “We got you covered.” I can’t tell you how much that meant to me. I turned around and prayed for you, that your prayers would be answered and that you would be blessed for doing it."

Phil, we are so happy for you. Thanks for sharing how the Lord worked in your life!

Coco is a Star

Kelly, our makeup artist, is a woman of many talents. Not only has she raised her ducks from eggs, and not only does she make Larry and me look much better than we deserve to do each day, she is also a turtle rescuer!

Her turtle Coco is famous at the University of Georgia exotic animal school! About a year ago, Kelly took Coco in, and he had such dire viruses that the vet and vet students thought he had very little chance of making it. If you look closely in the first picture, you can see that Coco has a feeding tube and IV. Kelly was having to take him in to UGA almost every week to get checkups.

Now, a year later, Coco is thriving. Isn't it nice to know God watches over creatures big and small? It may not take an exotic animal clinic to make you feel better, but God knows just what you need.

Kelly says photos of Coco hang all over the walls at Georgia. He's famous for being a case study! And you thought he was just a turtle...
