The Luke Warm Church announces publication of "Church Songs," whose title, according to the editor, was chosen because "We didn't want to turn anybody off with threatening words that no one understands anymore like 'worship' or 'hymn.' People in today's society get kind of uncomfortable with too much talk about things like commitment and dedication. They'd much rather have a religion that they can turn on or off at will. Our book seeks to meet that need."

Mel, those are funny... yet so eye-opening!
How are you? I'm sorry I haven't been better about keeping in touch! You are all still constantly in my thoughts and prayers... as you each remain in my heart.
Love you, sister! Hope the Lord's grace is lifting you up and carrying you!
Bethany
