@chrismunns Yep! I was a junior in college when we first got Wifi. Had to get a wireless network card that connected to the computer through a slot on the side. We all sat in the lobby of the dorm amazed that we were on the Internet!

"...He will be exalted among the nations and in the earth. He will be exalted with or without our effort. So, stop putting pressure on your own shoulders that was never yours to bear."

Child dedication is as much about the church as it is about the parents and children. We ask the church to help parents disciple their children because we all need each other.

@CheapSeats411 They also had a distribution center in Memphis that was big enough to now house multiple restaurants, a grocer, a health clinic, a radio station, a high school, several floors of apartments and more.

@AlexJayBrady Just replaced my 4Runner with 335,000 miles with a Sequoia with 190,000 miles. Practically new.

@Matt_Pinner Lee Ora

Her sister’s name was Glen Ola

But more seriously, Lula was another and I think is actually fun.

@HogFanPage Ah, memories. His son and my kids go to the same high-school. It's pretty nostalgic to see #5 take off for a run then hear "McFadden" over the loudspeaker!

@GaryParrishCBS Also Jasteven Walker from Oakland (Fayette-Ware)

@TylerDurden Has anyone tried plugging a screenplay into an ai just to see how closely it comes to the movie?

[Josh Raspberry @joshraspberry]

@TaylorBurgess87 @jasonkovacs Been doing handwritten notes to volunteers and staff over the last year. I get so much positive feedback and open conversations. It’s an easy win, even if my hands hurt!

@jefffeldman We just bought a house with two of them. My 13yo son just sits and stares at the fire for hours. A nice break from TV and video games!

@TheRhetorRick Maybe...reminds me of the joke about the guy found on a deserted island. There were three structures: his home, his church, and the church he used to go to.

@PicturesFoIder My wife’s maiden name is Black and my last name is Raspberry. Smucker’s sent us cases of Black-Raspberry jam and we gave it out as wedding favors.

@sunshineon2024 @cubedreamer When I was a teacher I often told my students, “Some of you are smarter than me, but I know more things than you.”
