Little Country Church on the edge of town

Do do do do do do

People coming every day from miles around

For meetings and for Sunday school

And it's very plain to see

It's not the way it used to be.

Welcome to the Word for today, featuring the Bible teaching ministry of Pastor Chuck Smith, founder of the Calvary Chapel Movement.

This radio program is a chapter-by-ch chapter verse by verse study through the entire Bible.

And on today's edition of the Word for today, Pastor Chuck continues his message,

true praise as we pick up in Acts chapter 17 verse 25.

And now with today's study, here's Pastor Chuck.

You can worship God out there under that tree.

You can worship God beside your bed at home.

You can worship God sitting at the kitchen table.

You can worship God sitting on the sand at the beach.

In fact, I find sitting on the sand at the beach a very great environment

to worship God. He isn't worshipped by the works of men's hands as though he needed anything,

as though God needed for me to give him something. What a ridiculous idea. Oh, Chuck, I need for you to really

give to me this week, as I'm almost broke. And my program won't be able to go on another week

unless you bail me out, Chuck, and help me now, please, you know.

I'm desperate.

I know I've sent letters like this before, but this time I mean it, you know.
