[GUEST POST] Hi, my name is David Brace. My wife and I have been members of Calvary Church for more than 25 years. I have had a life long history of hearing impairment, but in 2002, following surgery to correct a problem with a cochlear implant, I ended up losing the last of what hearing I had. I must admit that I was a bit frightened when I found out that I would not regain any hearing, but it did not take long for God to move in and reassure me that all would be okay. Romans 8:28-30 kept going through my mind. We decided to try learning American Sign Language and attend a church where there was an interpreter for the deaf. A long story made short, after five years of trying, although I had made many friends among the deaf, we just could not receive the level of preaching we had received under Ed Dobson. Finally my wife took my frustration in hand and called Pastor Samra to ask if there was some way I could get his notes ahead of the s...

We've got one of those candy machines at work - you know, the kind where you get a handful of skittles or M&M's? Ours benefits the Juvenile Diabetes foundation. It took a co-worker to point out to me the total irony in that, and that title is his quote, but I liked it. Come to think of it, the Lions Club uses those too, and they help the blind. ( there's a link between blindness and diabetes )

On a day like today (when I feel this way) I don't know what to say I just pray - God help me. -bill
