		<description>In my grandmother's house, in the room where my brother and I slept was a real wardrobe.  I know that, on at least one occasion, I pushed aside the polyester suits and thrust my hand to the back...just in case.

I wish I still had that fervent of a longing for magic.</description>

		<description>If Jesus was leading our country, how would he try to bring freedom to the world?  Through war?

Why do we as Christians sometimes put our country above our God?

Sorry, but all I have is questions.</description>

		<description>Speaking of the video clip of Zoe's 'new CD', is that available online anywhere? If not, could it be? Maybe linked on the Zoe Web site? I know of some who weren't in attendance at the conference or at Highland that Sunday who would definitely be amused by it.</description>

		<description>The two people preachers must be very carefully to respect:  the sound person and the computer person.  It can go bad very quickly if it goes bad there!

Emily - no script, but probably a tape available.</description>

		<description>A church that can't laugh at itself is a church doomed to die.  
Funny church story - I was running our computer last week during worship.  I'm an elder (that's probably the problem - keep those elders away from the computer)at our church.  We had several people out and the sister who was suppose to run the computer said she needed a break.  

I was doing fine until my knee hit the main power switch and our screen started retracting in the middle of our preacher's sermon.  

He recovered quickly by telling the church, "That's the fastest I've ever had the elders pull the plug on one of my sermons!"  

We all "knee" a laugh every now and then.

		<description>I'll plan to be there for the 12/9 presentation - I love C S Lewis, so what better birthday gift can afford myself than listening to you, as well as seeing the "Iron Apron Strings" drama presentation.

Thanks!

As far as church laughing at itself, any doubts were erased about Highland with your video clip of ZOE's 'new CD' - loved it.  LOL  WShat a blessing you are, Mike Cope!!</description>
