The Chapel Quotes
“The two major institutions that God has created to change the world are the Church and the home. What happens in the home is more important than what happens in church primarily because of the amount of time we spend in the home. How do we change and orient the rhythms at home to mold our marriages and our kids into the design that God has for all of us? We need to make certain that we have small daily deposits that will compound over time to truly make a difference in our world. Over time what seems small becomes incredibly significant. There is no better time than today to make that 180-degree turn.”
“Love the Lord your God with all of your heart, with all of your soul and with all of your might. That is the mission of the home, and of any individual that has been created by God. The home’s primary mission is to love God with all that we are, in everything that we do. When it comes to parenting our primary mission is to raise our kids to love God. Our mission is not to raise scholars, professional athletes or world class artists, our mission is to raise Christ followers. Whatever our mission is, is what we’re probably going to become. Do you as a family have mission clarity about what God has called you to do and to be as a family?”

Devotion 04/19/2026
Our Devotion, “A True Friend” is by Alexis L. Warner, a professional writing major at Taylor University in Upland, Indiana and book reviewer for Christian Book Previews and Church Libraries.
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: “A friend loves at all times…” Proverbs 17:17 (NIV)
Amy and I were best friends when we were young. We did everything together. We jumped rope together, played with our dolls together, and watched TV together.
However, true friendship sometimes involves an element of pain.
Several years ago, I started struggling with my weight. I told Amy I had decided to go on a “crash diet.” She worried about me for days before she made up her mind about what she needed to do. She told my mom. I was furious with Amy for weeks after that. How could she do that to me? I had confided in her, trusted her. How could she betray me like that?
It took me a long time to realize that she had done the most selfless, loving thing she could have done in that situation. The biblical principle of friendship is love, and biblical love is not self-seeking (1 Cor. 13:5). Knowing full well how I would react, she subjected herself to the pain of my anger because she wanted me to be safe. That was true friendship. That was godly friendship.
PRAYER: Lord, help me to be a godly and selfless friend, one who reflects Your love. In Christ, I pray. Amen.

Purgatory Road
By Samuel Parker
Revell, PB, 283 pages
Jack and Laura are a married couple who ventured to Las Vega in an attempt to rekindle a dying marriage. Colten is a gas station clerk. Red is a sheriff. Molly is a runaway teen looking for adventure in Los Angeles. Boots is a lonely man who lives in a trailer in the middle of the desert. Seth is a manipulative being who bends unsuspecting victims to his malicious will. One stormy night in the Mojave desert connects and changes all of their lives in Samuel Parker’s Purgatory Road.
Parker creates suspense throughout the entire novel by utilizing short chapters to give the reader quick, action-packed scenes. He also keeps the readers on edge by building a chapter up to a cliff-hanger then switching point of view in the next chapter, making the readers wait for the resolution of a previous storyline. Though the purpose of some characters ends up muddled in the beginning, Parker does a good job of weaving their stories together in the end.
Despite some instances of telling information instead of showing through his characters, Parker’s plot is a thrilling one. It is easy for readers to gather the images of God and Satan through his portrayals of Boots and Seth. Without lapsing into preaching Parker gives an excellent depiction of both of their character traits and their influences on the human mind. Readers will not be able to put this book down once they start it.
This book illuminates just how easy it is to fall into the trap of sin through the actions and beliefs of different characters. It also shows how the devil uses people to do his dirty work, and how trusting in God is the only way to safety.
