Then when we got our spring Sunday School literature this past Sunday there was an article in the adult SS teacher's book again stating that 3 out of 4 people in North America are without Christ! A quote from this article " Jaelin, who just finished second grade, started participating in a summer ministry led by North American missionary Debbie Wohler in Lake Tahoe, California. One of the summer missionaries working with Debbie told the children, 'We're going to have a Bible study now.' Jaelin asked,' What's a Bible study?' After the explanation, her brother, Woody, asked, 'Who's God?' "
Where are we, folks? Why aren't we more concerned? Why aren't we out knocking on doors?
My husband and I were discussing this last night at the supper table. I told him if 75% of the people in our county were in church on Sunday mornings every church in our area would be knocking out walls to make room for them...or building many new churches! He said if even 50% were in church...he's probably right!
This is so sad! Are we selfish...unconcerned...unaware...too caught up in other things?
Luke 10:2 " Therefore he said unto them, The harvest truly is great, but the labourers are few: pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he would send forth labourers into his harvest."
We've got to get a burden for the lost!

Hello! I'm stopping by to answer your question about the sugar cookie cake. I used regular all-purpose flour and it turned out very moist. I hope you like it!

Hi- I linked to you through Barb at A Chelsea Morning. I'm a pastor's wife too.
I agree with what you said. In my mind, Jesus must be planning to return very soon, or else there won't be very many to return to. It sure makes my heart heavy.
Thank you for coming by. Im excited to meet another Ms. Girl.
Good point! This is such an overlooked truth. If the body of Christ could catch just a glimpse of His heart we would be such a bold family! My 8 year old has a heavier burden for the lost than most adults I know. It sure opens my eyes to the reality of Christ and stretches me to be bolder in my own faith!
Thanks for sharing this truth!
