The Chapel Quotes
“A child’s obedience to parents is an act of obedience to God, and should be motivated primarily out of a desire to follow the Lord, and to bring pleasure to God. Maximum freedom in our life is found under God’s authority by obeying our parents and respecting the laws. In His authority God has two loving motives; to provide us with something better and to protect us from something harmful. One of the best gifts we can give our mothers is to honor them whether they are here or not.”
“It is vital for us to look at our own behavior in our approach to our kids. Our behaviors have a direct effect on them, and how much influence we have on them. Our responsibilty is to bring up our children in the teaching and in modeling the ways of Jesus. We need to define our goals for our children, to define our non-negotiable goals for our family and to adapt our approach, not our convictions to the different phases of parenting. When we are sick, aching, troubled and heartbroken God is always there.”

Devotion 05/11/2025
Our Devotion, “Reading the Good Book” is by Matt Maine, a professional writing major at Taylor University in Upland, Indiana, and a freelance writer for Christian Book Previews and WBCL radio.
Today, I’d like to tell you about a really great book. It spans thousands of years and took dozens of authors to write it. It talks of war, romance, betrayal, corruption, and persecution. It’s beautifully written: poetic, detailed, and with the air of a pleasant storyteller. Its themes are about love, brokenness, hope, and overcoming all obstacles. Its greatest message is that there is always salvation, no matter what happens. One man stepped down from his throne and took on the wickedness of the world, then sacrificed himself to save it. There was never a story so touching or as beautiful as this. It has something in it for everyone. Who wouldn’t want to rush to the bookstore and stay up all night reading it?
Sadly, a lot of people don’t. The Bible truly is a remarkable and special book in every way, and all of it is true. Apart from being wonderful literature, the Bible is “profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, [and] for instruction in righteousness,” according to 2 Timothy 3:16. Perhaps this is why the Bible has been referred to for centuries as “the Good Book.” If you haven’t read a good book lately, let me suggest that you start with the best book.

WEDDING BELL BLUES
The Piper Cove Chronicles
by Linda Windsor
Avon Inspire, 978-0-06-117137-6, PB, 274 pages, $12.99
Of the four female friends who grew up at Piper Cove, Alex Butler is the one with a knack for design and control. That’s why she’s been put in charge of planning her younger sister’s wedding. But control is what Alex may lose when her ex-husband Josh turns up as the best man! He says he’s changed his ways, but has he? And even if he has, could Alex ever trust her heart to love him again? In the first of the Piper Cove series,
Linda Windsor takes readers down a path of painful memories and fresh beginnings. The novel is chocked full of characters, each with his or her own personality and amusing or intriguing past. And with all those interesting people, it can be difficult to follow the plot from time to time. Some of the romantic descriptions could be considered borderline “cutesy,” as well. The theme of forgiveness in Wedding Bell Blues almost shines through the physicality but won’t be worth the risk to many. Discretion should probably be used when reading or recommending this book.
