The Week at a Glance

Our Easter Outlook
During World War II, when the Blitz was at its worst in London, theologian Leslie Weatherhead said there had been no loss of life among the Christians there. Many Christians had been killed in London, but there was no loss of life. People who believe in the risen Lord have true life in him, no matter their earthly trials and circumstances. Because God raised his Son from the dead, Christians are assured of immortality in Christ. Eternal life is ours, thanks to the empty tomb.

Bernice Dudley Laura Elliott Kristy Genung Kevin Gunyanyi Tom & Lois Harris Brendan & Rachel Horner Lisa Johnson Patricia Johnson Garland and Rose Mapp Dolores Martin Clay, Sonja, Jessica & Kristina Overholt James Ratcliff Helen Stowe Matt & Kristin Wallin Iris Williams An Old Testament book reveals some lessons that King Lemuel learned from his mother. One was the following: Speak out for those who cannot speak, for the rights of all the destitute. Speak out, judge righteously, defend the rights of the poor and needy. Which book contains that quote? A. Psalms; B. Jeremiah; C. 2 Kings; D. Proverbs (See chapter 31, verses 8-9.)

A Sunday school teacher was telling the story of the Good Samaritan. In graphic detail she described how the assaulted man was left helpless beside the road. Then she asked the class, "If you came upon a wounded man lying by the road and he had blood all over him, what would you do?" A dainty girl spoke first, "I think," she said with a wince, "that I'd probably throw up."
