True Light Church

I was testing a mic set up for audio recording to use for my videos and had asked my daughter in-law to come and be my test reader. I opened a book that was on a shelf in the office and did not read or look at the page, nor was I familiar with the content. I liked the way it sounded so well and her reading of the writing that I thought our Baptism Sunday Service’s in 2018 would fit perfectly.

 Imagine a group of 30 to 40 people setting in a field under temporary cover on a Hot Sunday Afternoon to hear God’s word and to watch their loved ones be baptized in a stock tank. For much of the world I am sure this would be considered insignificant but for our family and for God once again his Grace and Love shine through.

I am so blessed to serve a God who does not favor a person’s title, position of status on earth and individual monetary wealth but rather a person’s faith and a people though not perfect, God  embraces the weak and through faith makes us stronger.

It may seem crazy and peculiar to some people but I see it as a great blessing of life. God does not care about the place of worship,  he cares about the worshiper.  This post is for those who made a decision in their life in June and then in September of 2018  to follow Christ with the evidence of newness by being baptized. 

Matthew 5:8 “Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God”.

A TRIBUTE TO THE GREEN

My time at Meyer Speedway as a young boy was some my favorite memories. I was able to have insight on two different race teams that were prominent at Meyer Speedway in the late 60’s. My Dad Pa Pa Sonny (Catchings) was a part of George Nash’s crew, although he started coming to Meyer Speedway because of my Step Dad (Don Ballard) Pa Pa Don and my Uncle Walter (Ballard).

This page and video is for Pa Pa Don as he will still to this day, set down and tell you everything he did on the Green 5 Car.  (Even his secrets, rules are made to be tested and if the rule is gray, you can bet the rule will be bent). 

First, green race cars are supposed to be bad luck and you don’t eat peanuts in the pits. Leave it to the very confident Ballard’s to paint their race car GREEN. If we could go back in time we would probably find peanuts somewhere in their pits.

I was hoping their was video footage of the Green 5 car and thankfully, Uncle Harold had footage and had it put on DVD. Enjoy the photos and video footage in this Tribute to the Green.
