The Chapel Quotes
“All flesh is like grass and all its glory like the flower of grass, but the grass withers and the flower falls, but the Word of the Lord remains forever. His Word is the good news. Love one another, you are all followers of Christ, and the good news of Christ should be fueling your love. The good news is imperishable, unfading, eternal. All other earthly good news is fading.”
“Our love by Christians needs to be fueled by hope. Even while we were Christ’s enemies He died for us. We love because Christ first loved us. This good news is for everyone, but because we have free will some people are not going to choose this. God does not wish for anybody to perish apart from Him. Shout Jesus from the mountains, Jesus in the street, Jesus in the darkness. Your name is healing, Your name is life.”

Devotion 05/05/2024
Our Devotion: “Continuous Love” is by Jessica Smith of Beavercreek, Ohio who studied professional writing at Taylor University.
THOUGHT FOR TODAY: “Dear friends, since God so loved us, we also ought to love one another.” 1 John 5: 11 (NIV)
One day, I walked into the kitchen, snatched the television remote, and changed the channel from what my mother was watching without asking her. She paused in her task and looked up at me and told me that she loved me, and she also told me how beautiful I was to her, then went back to doing her work. Being slightly confused by the random statement, I asked her what was wrong with her. She said, “I just love you for you, Jeanette.” I thought that she was doing some kind of reverse psychology to make me turn the channel back. “No, really, Mom, what is wrong?” “Jeanette, I have learned to appreciate you for you. Even if sometimes you are a little annoying, I still love you.”
I smiled at her and flipped the television station to what it was previously on. I already knew she loved me. However, hearing her say it and feeling her truly mean it was comforting. I knew that she said it because she meant it and not just because she wanted to watch her favorite soap opera.
PRAYER: Dear God, please let me know and feel Your never–ending love in my life. Let me appreciate the fact that You care for me even though I do not deserve it. In Your Loving name, I pray. Amen.

The Disciple Maker’s Handbook
By Bobby Harrington and Josh Patrick
Zondervan, PB, 192 pages
Discipleship wanes in a society in which churches emphasize numbers and wherein social media weakens personal relationships. Even though most churches stress the need for discipleship, many Christians have no practical methods for carrying out the biblical call found in Matthew 28:19. In The Disciple Makers Handbook, Harrington and Patrick give readers hands-on advice regarding how to cultivate this important spiritual discipline – based on years of experience and intentionality.
The book’s strength comes from its pragmatic advice related to several facets of discipleship, including insights on who would make a complementary group member and anecdotes and situations drawn from the authors’ lives. One weakness of the book, however, is that its authors targeted the book’s audience unevenly. If it had been directed solely at Christians further along in their spiritual maturity, then the authors should not have presented so much basic information about Gospel truths. On the flip side, if the book was meant to be a tool for recent converts, then the book should not have invested as many pages as it did in steps that should be taken by spiritually older Christians. Also, the chapters have several redundant passages. Nevertheless, overall the book is a helpful tool for believers needed a foundational understanding of the call for discipleship. Christians interested in practical advice for discipleship, particularly new Christians unaware of basic discipleship concepts or seasoned Christians interested in “multiplying disciples” will find this book helpful.
