Remember the days of VBS?

When I was a kid, we all lined up and marched into the sanctuary and sang songs, fought over who got to hold the flag while we said our pledge to the US, the Christian Flag and the Bible. Then we would retreat to our rooms and make clay handprints with poems that made our moms cry. It was the only time we got to be at church with friends in our neighborhood who were never there on Sunday. We ate butter cookies that we wore as rings and drank watered down Kool Aid and it was the best time of our lives.

VBS has changed so much. Cool props, T-Shirts that are a fashion “do”, fun music and lots of media driven activities. And now in most places, it is in the evening hours so more adults can help reach our young kids. I know we are busy and stretched and it seems we can’t squeeze one more thing into our schedule. However, this VBS season try to help if you can. In a small way…like sending rice crispy treats one night for you child’s group. Or even putting together a ‘teacher’s lounge’ area so the adults can grab a Diet Sunkist and make it through the rest of the night…it’s the little things that make the biggest difference. Let us know of VBS’ in your area so we can promote them! Good Luck this year to all the fearless leaders of VBS!! We are praying for you!!

Ice Bragging

It’s probably a sin, but I can’t help it. In fact, I’m kinda proud of it. And I know I’m not the only one who has this problem.

I once had a Sunday school teacher who constantly pointed out his expensive watch, ostensibly as an object lesson that anyone can make a lot of money if one applies oneself.
