Video: Rev.Billy Joe Daugherty Turns the Other Cheek






Pastor Joe Daugherty was conducting an altar service, just as he had done many times, when Steven Rogers punched him in the face. Stevens displayed no hesitation, nor did he show any remorse for his actions. in Fact, it was reported that Stevens had done the exact thing to a pastor fifteen years ago.

I am truly amazed at the response of Pastor Daugherty. He did not retaliate in the least, but he did, however, put his blessings on Stevens and requested prayer for him. This is an excellent picture of the love that Christ showed us on the cross of Calvary.

My friend Travis Johnson found some video clips of the event.

Computer Prices: Good or Bad?


One of my computers recently went down. I began looking to buy a new one, but realized that it didn’t fit in my budget at the present.
While surfing the net, I found this ad for a computer scheduled to hit the market in 1989.
How would you like to buy one at this price?
So, when you compain about the prices of computers, remember, we could be paying much more.
Thank God for advancing technology!

Get What You Paid For?


After an eleven hour day of hard work, nothing would suit me better than an iced latte from Dunkin Donuts. They are incredible!
I ordered a “mocha iced latte” and proceeded to the window to pay. While sitting there waiting for my latte, I noticed the guy in the store filling a cup of coffee. He shook and tipped the canister hoping to make a full cup of “regular” coffee. However, there was only enough coffee to fill the cup one-third of the way. Showing his obvious frustration with the empty canister, he stuck the cup under the “decaf” nozzle and filled the cup. Then he took it to a customer at the counter, who I’m sure ordered the loaded stuff.
Now, if any of you are coffee drinkers, you know that is like ordering a steak and getting a plate of bean and rice. Many times, when I order coffee, it’s to get an extra jolt of energy. Although that was not my coffee…I felt cheated!
The man who received that cup of coffee, well, I just wonder if he’ll ever know the difference.
Next time you order coffee, just think if you’re getting what you paid for.

First Preview Service

Great things are happening at Life Pointe!

We enjoyed our first preview service last Saturday night. Brian and Sheri led us into the presence of God with outstanding music ministry. The worship mingled with the Word created a hunger for more of what God has for us. Also, it created a sense of conviction that could not be ignored. Three people rededicated their life to Christ, and two made a committment to Christ…Praise God!
Life Pointe will be opening at the Regal Cinemas, soon. Pray and ask God how you can contribute to this endeavor.
