Howdy, everyone, and I apologize this is up so late! The fellowshipping after Mr. Ames’ Bible study went on much later than I expected. But it’s hard to tear yourself away from so many friends and loved ones who’ve come from so far to be together. 🙂 Tonight’s greetings video is below. Have a beautiful […]
Greetings on the Road
Howdy, everyone. Tonight’s greetings are a bit briefer than usual and talk some about the tragic events in Connecticut. I fail to say so in the video, but my thoughts are also with some of you out there who have been through similar tragedies in your own lives. Let’s all pray that God will send […]
Some discussion about Wallace G. Smith, Sr.
Howdy, everyone, and I hope that you Sabbath is off to a peaceful and restful start. Let me say briefly here what I don’t think I remembered to say in tonight’s video: my thanks to the many of you who heard of the death of my father, Wallace G. Smith, Sr., in Texas this week […]
An atheist who doubts evolution and a request for website feedback
Howdy, everyone! I hope your Sabbath has begun well. In the Friday Night Greetings, below, I ask for some feedback on the local website here: what you think of the visual theme, what you think of other themes such as those for the congregations in the “Blogroll” section, what you’d like to see on the […]
Post-Thanksgiving Night Greetings!
Howdy, everyone! Tonight’s video is a little light fare after a day of heavy eating. 🙂 Hopefully none of you ventured into “gluttony” territory, yesterday! For my part, I did pretty good; the closest I came to that mistake was, I think, the extra cookie or two I ate for dessert. It was a wonderful […]
COE & Thanksgiving Thoughts
Howdy, everyone, and I pray that your Sabbath is off to a wonderful start! Tonight’s Friday Night Greetings contain a few comments about this week’s Council of Elders meetings and next week’s Thanksgiving Day observance. Our Spokesman Club page should be up and running on this website by now. We didn’t use it much last […]
Let not your heart be troubled!
Howdy, everyone, and welcome to another Sabbath evening! The Friday Night Greetings video is below, with a few post-Presidential Election thoughts. I hope you find them “centering.” Have a wonderful Sabbath!
A Pre-Presidential-Picking Post!
Howdy, everyone, and I hope your Sabbath is off to a wonderful start. It certainly is in the Smith household. I’ll save my thoughts for the video, tonight, which should be below. Take care, and I pray that your Sabbath tomorrow is profitable and edifying!
Great-to-be-back-though-I’m-really-tired Friday Night Greetings!
Howdy, everyone! It is wonderful to be back in Ohio! I thoroughly enjoyed my trip to Iowa and Charlotte (and, in passing, Chicago, New York, and Atlanta!), but after a week like that it’s all the nicer to put your heels up on the table and relax for God’s Sabbath. 🙂 I’m pretty tired, so […]
Straight out of Dubuque!
My apologies for some very late Friday Night Greetings tonight. Not only are they late here, where it’s about 10:30-ish Central Time, but they are certainly late for most of you where it is 11:30-ish Eastern Time. The flights went well, generally, though Chicago O’Hare continued in its past tradition of attempting to mess up […]
