Exile

This week, our part of the country was touched by a terrible fire. Five young people died in the flames. Another seven were injured. While trying to assist the victims to find clothes and other necessities, I read the letter to the exiles from Jeremiah. What had happened to the survivors of the flames was similar to the experience of the exiles to whom Jeremiah wrote -- they were exiled from their home, their clothing, everything that makes us feel secure. Where do you go to restart your life after that? Join the congregation of Community Presbyterian Church of Belllefonte, Ky for this week's sermon from Jeremiah 29:1,4-7, "Exile" by clicking HERE.

Rodney King

Rodney King, after getting his brains beat in by the LAPD, famously said, "Why can't we all just get along?"

Good question, that. But the efforts directed toward peace seem to be met with cries of "Our salvation lies in superior fire power." When have the peace makers done enough, that they may hear "Well done, good and faithful servant?" Our passage from Luke 17:1-10 suggests, "Never".
