When I was in the fourth grade and lived in Waugh, Alabama, I was on a constant adventure. Back in those days, kids would leave the house early, be gone most of the day, and make sure to be home by supper. There was no real concern about kidnapping or harm, and it was out in the country. I would ride my bike miles from home, visit Line Creek, play war in the woods with my friends, or go fishing. One day, as I was riding my bike down the road, I heard thunder, looked behind me, and saw a wall of rain coming down the road. It was both fascinating and scary. I quickly rode my bike to a local country store and made it just as the rain came through. The storm was all around me, but I was dry and safe inside the store.
It is over 60 years later, and storms still come through. Not only thunderstorms, but those storms of life you would rather not face. Sometimes you can see them approaching, and sometimes they hit you out of nowhere, but there is still a shelter from the storm; our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. The Lord never promised our lives would be free of storms, but He said we would never have to face them alone. He is always there to protect, encourage, and be our shelter in the midst of the storm. If I remember correctly, the store's owner, who knew me, gave me a bottle of Coke and chatted with me while I waited for the storm to pass. Jesus also, even in the midst of the storm, refreshes us and teaches us valuable lessons of life, and no matter how scary or stormy it is outside, Jesus is the calm in the storm.
Psalm 91:1-16 He who dwells in the shelter of the Most High will abide in the shadow of the Almighty. I will say to the Lord, “My refuge and my fortress, my God, in whom I trust.” For he will deliver you from the snare of the fowler and from the deadly pestilence. He will cover you with his pinions, and under his wings you will find refuge; his faithfulness is a shield and buckler. You will not fear the terror of the night, nor the arrow that flies by day, …
Romans 8:28 And we know that for those who love God all things work together for good, for those who are called according to his purpose.
John 16:33 I have said these things to you, that in me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation. But take heart; I have overcome the world.

A while back, my wife and I went for lunch at one of our favorite places, Cracker Barrel. It was very busy, and we were told there would be about a half-hour wait, so we looked around in the little country store that all Cracker Barrels have. I noticed a little piece of wood with a cute saying on it. It was just a piece of light balsa, painted gray, but it had a cute message on it. They were asking $10.00 for it, and while the wood and paint certainly weren’t worth that, it was the message that made it valuable enough for someone to buy.
I heard someone ask recently why God doesn’t just take us to heaven when we get saved. Well, there are several reasons, but let me mention this one. We have a message. These bodies we live in are only temporary and not worth much, really, but it is the eternal part of us that is so valuable. God leaves us here because we have a powerful, valuable, life-changing message we need to share. In a sense, we are just a piece of balsa painted gray, but we have a message that gives us the ability to lead people to God and change their eternal destination. Make sure that message is clearly seen in and through you. While people are milling around this life waiting for this or that, perhaps they will see your message, receive what God has to offer, and, even better, it is free because Jesus has paid the price.
Matthew 28:19 Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit,
Matthew 24:14 And this gospel of the kingdom will be proclaimed throughout the whole world as a testimony to all nations, and then the end will come.
Psalm 96:3 Declare his glory among the nations, his marvelous works among all the peoples!

This Sunday on “Getting To Know You with Host Paul Pitts” will be special guest Comedian Tim Lovelace. We will discuss his new book Green Rain: which is Inspiring Short Stories from the Unique Perspective of a Humorist, the debut title from GRAMMY®-nominated recording artist and bestselling comedian Tim Lovelace, bows July 14 from Pathway Press. A collection of 50 anecdotes brimming with wit and wisdom, the book features a foreword from author and speaker Anne Beiler, founder of Auntie Anne’s Pretzels.
Inspired by Lovelace’s popular Moments that Motivate podcast and nationally syndicated radio series, Green Rain piques instant curiosity with such chapter titles as “Lightsaber Duel of the Century,” “The Tale of the Traveling Tomato,” and “How to Train a Squirrel.” Delivering equal measures of lighthearted amusement and earnest encouragement, Lovelace’s ultimate goal is to bring joy, hope, and perspective— one story at a time.
“The truth is, I’m not here to teach you how to live,” he explains. “Life is already doing that; daily, relentlessly, without asking permission. This book is a collection of life moments. My hope is that you are inspired to embrace the hidden treasures and opportunities that await us every day; moments to encourage others, love deeply, and live fully.”
“I’ve had the privilege of listening to Tim Lovelace perform his comedy act, and the laughter comes straight from my gut,” writes Beiler in the book’s foreword. “Only God knows laughter is as important as good medicine is for the healing of our bodies. The stories in this book will uplift your spirit and provide medicine for your soul. …It feels like a collection of practical ‘how-to’s’ for the ‘ought-to’s’ in our daily lives.”
Green Rain arrives on the heels of Lovelace’s acclaimed January StowTown Records set, On a Different Note. Showcasing his signature piano stylings across a thoughtfully curated selection of American classics and beloved sacred favorites, the instrumental project includes Lovelace’s renditions of “You’ve Got a Friend in Me,” “Let There Be Peace on Earth,” and “This is My Father’s World,” among others, as well as the standout “Celebration of America Medley,” a tapestry of such patriotic stalwarts as “Battle Hymn of the Republic,” “Shenandoah,” “My Country, ‘Tis of Thee,” “America The Beautiful,” and “God Bless America.”
We will also discus his family and not let him Leave till he tells up a comedically story. Tune in Sunday morning to hear all of this from Tim!!!

Good morning and welcome to “Getting To Know You with Host Paul Pitts”. A couple of weeks ago on May 30th we would have been celebrating the birthday of our friend Jeff Stice. Jeff was a great musician and Gospel Music artist that left us back during the Pandemic and we miss his funny character and his music. I went back and pulled up the last interview I did with him at the Roopville Baptist Church in Roopville, Georgia. I hope you enjoy listening to Jeff and his thoughts on his career in Gospel Music.
