The Truth

Ladies and gentlemen who read this blog (all 2 of you). I am taking just a few minutes to tell the truth and to tell the "Rest of the Story." As many of you know this weekend the Davis family traveled to Columbus to celebrate Bro Bob Thompson's 40 years of dedicated service as the pastor at Bethel Holiness Church. I must confess that at times I felt overwhelmed by being back in the church where it all started spiritually for me. To be there once again with people who I grew up around and love and have the highest respect for as both mentors and as friends. People like Sis Amour, Bobbie and Wanda Greathouse, Dottie Roth, Bro and Sis Hight, Sonji Osborn, Janie Wetheral, Harold and Annette Killinger, Chuck and Mary Jane McGuire, Bro and Sis Vernon Shockley, Jay and Brenda Pitcher and of course Bro and Sis Bob Thompson. I also enjoyed being there with some of the younger people (clear my throat) like Jonathan and Karen Walden, Paul Armour, Amy (?) Speers, Darin and Amy Shear, Randy and Missy Dunn and of course my beautiful young and attractive wife (that is Angie).

In the morning service Bro Avery did an outstanding job as he always does with his message. The afternoon meal was wonderful and the ladies of the church truly did a wonderful job.

Now there is rumor out in the blog world concerning one very distinguished visitor that I feel I must protect his honor. It has been mentioned on a certain blog that spreads false things that Bro Steve Hight was a frequent flier at the dessert table. I know for quite certain that this saintly man was not partaking in such false activities as are alleged on certain doodle blogs. This saintly man was deep in prayer and how do I know you ask...because he was standing next to me. This man prayed like no man has ever prayed in a fellowship hall....God bless his dear soul. My prayers are for that wicked, worldly blog site that spreads false accusations on godly people such as Bro Hight. Speaking of spreading false things and worldly doodling blog sites.....Another false rumor being spread is about another godly man....Jonathan Walden. This dear man worked so hard on the afternoon service and what did he get for all his hard work....phewwwww. People criticizing all the time and energy that Jonathan put into putting together this wonderful program. People then making fun of his ability to inject humor into the service by staging a time where a made light of the fact that someone snuck in and changed his pages....I think that I heard some snickering coming from the back of the church from someone in black and hot pink suit....that evil person I have a feeling works with that evil doodle blog person knocking down spiritual people that just try to do good. I peronally liked the page tearing effect it brought a sense of ..........turning a page in history..,.it was almost made me want to cry. Needless to say my dear friend Jonathan did an outstanding job and I personally think that his mother-in-law (Shelia Thompson) also did an outstanding job with her part of the day. Over all the weekend was a great success and when I finally hit 40 years of service I hope that Bro Hight and Jonathan are there for me...because I know that after a couple of people read this they will be doing my eulogy. And folks that is the "Rest of the Story."
