LIFE IS A BLAST! Minuteman to Ministry: A Pastor Looks Back on His Life and Anticipates the Future! by Pastor Cecil A. Thompson

Life starts for everyone at the moment of birth. What a profound statement! It is what we do with that life that counts. To ask the question, “How in the world did I get here?” Seems to demand another question, “Where is here?” Here is where we happen to be at this very moment. It is not a particular age or a particular achievement. It is where we are right now.

I have been writing for many years but most of it has been unrelated to specific periods of time. You might say it has been a recounting of random thoughts, stories, illustrations, and memories. Someone much wiser than me as suggested that while there is still time I need to put down some of the things that I have done that will not be remembered after I’m gone. Isn’t that a cheerful thought?!

And so my story begins. This little boy who was stuck with the name Junior was about to enter life and have the most wonderful experience that can even be imagined.  Yes I had many disciplines along the way, but as I look back they were all deserved, and a few I got away with. Please fasten your seat belt and take this trip with me. Pastor Cecil A. Thompson

Love Joy Peace: A Tasty Sample of Spiritual Fruit That Will Give You A Boost For The Day! by Pastor Cecil A. Thompson

Back in the 1970’s I was Deputy Director of the Idaho Law Enforcement Planning Commission. I also taught a few night classes in the Criminal Justice field at Boise State University. One term I was called by the Registrar’s Office and asked to teach a large class in Sociology. I had my Master’s Degree in Sociology and agreed to teach it. Most of the night classes had about 20 students and that was what I was anticipating.To my surprise there were over 120 registered. I now became more of an entertainer than professor.

The first class session I gave the assignment to write three most important qualities they wanted in their life. The answers were:  1. LOVE!  2. JOY!  3. PEACE!

When I read their results I opened to Galatians and read Galatians 5:22-23; “But the fruit of the Spirit is  • Love,  • Joy,  • Peace,  • Longsuffering,  • Kindness,  • Goodness,  Faithfulness,  • Gentleness,  • Self-Control.  Against such there is no law.” But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control. Against such there is no law.”  I think that those qualities are what we all seek to find. How sad people seek in all the wrong places. This book will help you find just the right “SPIRITUAL FRUIT” for your day.

7 Days In Hell: I Was There!: An Eyewitness Account of the True Existence Hell!

Author Larry E. Hunter received great reviews from other prominent authors!

NEW - 7 DAYS IN HELL Book Cover

PRLog - June 25, 2015 - BOISE, Idaho -- HELL A REAL PLACE Our curiosity about the abode of the dead is not completely satisfied by biblical terms or verses. What we do know is that either eternal torment in hell or eternal joy in heaven awaits all people after death, based on whether they trust in Christ's payment for sin or reject Christ. I WAS THERE!

The Bible calls hell dark, lonely and miserable, a place of eternal separation from God. But God doesn't want anyone to go there. He wants a relationship with us through His Son, Jesus Christ, so we can spend eternity with Him in heaven. You don't have to fear hell. Take time now to be assured of your place in heaven.

DIANA S. ZIMMERMAN, AUTHOR: This is a fascinating book and a remarkable read on may levels--not the least of which is the straight-forward sincerity with which it is written. Whether you believe in heaven or hell, or even in God, it is a book that unfolds with concepts and beliefs that are as intriguing as they are controversial. Larry "Buck" Hunter writes with a passion that defines his journey to hell and back with clarity and depth.

DR. VIN SMITH, PHD - AUTHOR: 7 Days in Hell will jerk you awake, and shake you by the scruff of the neck. It isn't God wanting to send you to Hell, it is Satan. The misery is unbearable in Hell, and there is no chance of release. Step by step, Hunter shows the exact truth of a very real place... A place you do not want to go...

KATHERINE BILLINGSLEY DUKE, READER: This book tells the Bible chapter and verse where no one wants to go. "Don't play with matches" and make way for Jesus. For seven days we see an out of body experience. No question we hang tight with Jesus!

James Taylor Celebrates First-Ever Number-One Album with "Before This World"

Timothy White

James Taylor has sold over 100 million records, has won five Grammy Awards and is a member of the Rock and Roll and Songwriters Halls of Fame.  But this week, the singer/songwriter reached a big milestone you may be surprised to learn he’s never before achieved: his first number-one album.

Before This World, Taylor’s first studio album in thirteen years, has reached the top position on the Billboard 200 chart with 97,068 copies sold.  The album was released June 16.

Taylor has scored a Billboard Hot 100 #1 single, but it’s been a long time — his cover of Carole King’s “You’ve Got a Friend” was #1 the week of July 31, 1971.  His highest album chart debut before today was 1971’s Mud Slide Slim and the Blue Horizon, which features “You’ve Got a Friend” — it spent four weeks in the number-two position.  Overall, Taylor’s placed 21 songs on the Hot 100, and has scored 11 top-10 albums on the Billboard 200.

HAPPY FATHER'S DAY - HISTORY OF FATHER'S DAY

HISTORY OF FATHER'S DAY

History of Father's Day Festival as seen today is not even a hundred years old. Thanks to the hard work and struggle of Ms. Sonora Louise Smart Dodd of Washington that just as we have set aside Mother's Day to honor mothers we have a day to acknowledge the important role played by the father.

However, some scholars opine that Father's Day history is much older than we actually believe it to be. They say that the custom of honoring dad's on a special day is over 4,000 years old. There are a few more claims about the Father's Day origin about which we will learn in this page.

EARLIEST HISTORY OF FATHER'S DAY

Scholars believe that the origin of Father's Day is not a latest phenomenon, as many believe it to be. Rather they claim that the tradition of Father's Day can be traced in the ruins of Babylon.

They have recorded that a young boy called Elmesu carved a Father's Day message on a card made out of clay nearly 4,000 years ago. Elmesu wished his Babylonian father good health and a long life.

Though there is no record of what happened to Elmesu and his father but the tradition of celebrating Father's Day remained in several countries all over the world.

HISTORY OF FATHER'S DAY IN USA

Modern version of Father's Day celebration originated in United States of America and thereafter the tradition spread in countries around the world.

The world owes thanks to Ms. Sonora Louise Smart Dodd a loving daughter from Spokane, Washington as it is because of her struggle that Father's Day saw the light of the day.

The idea of Father's Day celebration originated in Sonora's mind when she per chance listened to Mother's Day sermon in 1909. Fairly mature at the age 27, Sonora pondered if there is a day to honor mother then why not for father? Sonora felt strongly for fathers because of the affection she received from her own father Mr. William Jackson Smart, a Civil War veteran. Sonora's mother died while childbirth when she was just 16. Mr. Smart raised the newborn and five other children with love and care. 

Though there was initial hesitation the idea gained gradual popularity all over US and Father’s Day came to be celebrated in cities across the country.

Looking at the heightened popularity of Father's Day in US, President Woodrow Wilson approved of this idea in 1916.

President Calvin Coolidge too supported the idea of a national Father's Day in 1924 to, "establish more intimate relations between fathers and their children and to impress upon fathers the full measure of their obligations".

After a protracted struggle of over four decades, President Lyndon Johnson signed a presidential proclamation declaring the third Sunday of June as Father's Day in 1966.

Then in 1972, President Richard Nixon established a permanent national observance of Father's Day to be held on the third Sunday of June. 

Sonora Smart Dodd was honored for her contribution at the World's Fair in Spokane in 1974. 

Mrs. Dodd died in 1978 at age 96.
