As I sit here updating this blog-our Fall Friendraiser is going
on, and I am sitting in telephone central, (after my 5 hour onair
show), entering in the pledges and gifts that are coming in.
Those of you who have callled in are incredible! Thank
you for making the transition from listener to
partner. The phones have been ringing
consistently.
When you call you are demonstrating The Power of One!
Each and every gift, like the woman who annointed Jesus in Mark 14,
is significant. Each $20, $40, $50 is just as
important as the $500's and $1000's. They each are
responsible in reaching people for Christ and encouraging those who
already walk with Him.
Speaking of someone who walks with Him, remember in prayer Denia
Reese. She is the Catoosa County
Superintendent. I am sure you have seen in the news
the controversy surrounding the LFO HS cheerleaders banners at the
football games. For 20 years they have included
inspirational, motivational scripture verses. A Fort
Oglethorpe citizen has filed a complaint, therefore they have been
banned.
As you can imagine, this has caused quite the
stir/debate. Tonight there will a rally at the Fort
Oglethorpe Chik-fil-a to support the cheerleaders and their
signs.
Will Mrs. Reese be there? I don't know, but I firmly
belive she would want to. She loves Catoosa County
schools. She loves the students who attend Catoosa
County schools. And I know she is a very Godly woman,
who reads and follows God's Word, but she is faced with some very
difficult decisions.
Make sure that in your debate and protests that you keep the issue
at hand. What has to happen is the Consitutional
rights of the cheerleaders have to be demonstrated.
The Catoosa County School Board also has to protect the system from
frivilous law suits.
Remember just because you disagree with the decisions or opionions
of others, you are called by God to love, respect and pray for
them.
I pray that this situation came be turned around and the
cheerleaders rights to display any motivational, inspirational,
quotes they wish, including those from the greatest motivational,
inspirational book ever-God's Word.
