Editors Letter Continued I recently read a story Pastor Jeff Gannon shared: One day, the phone rang in my office. A young woman said, “I have just one question: may I come to your church?” Jeff was stunned. “Of course you can! Why would you feel like you need to ask?” “Let me tell you my story before you answer.” When she was a junior in high school, she got pregnant by a young man who had no interest in her or the baby. She kept the baby and decided to get her life back on track, so she started attending the church she was raised in. After a few months, she talked with her pastor. 1 John 3:1 "See what great love the Father has lavished on us, that we should be called children of God!" And that is what we are! The Father lavishes His great love on us! He calls us His children—and it’s true! That’s what we are! You are God’s beloved child. Think about it: God calls you His child. Do you love your children? Crazy love! You’d do anything for your kids; you’d die for your kids. God did that for you. He loves you like a parent loves his or her children. He is absolutely committed to your well being, to doing what is best for you. DO YOU BELIEVE THAT? She thought that other girls might learn from her mistakes, and offered to talk with middle school girls about the pressures of dating and sex. The pastor told her, “I would never allow that. I am afraid that YOUR TYPE of person might rub off on them.” She was hurt, but still kept coming. After her baby was born, she called the pastor to schedule a baptism service for her baby. The pastor said, “That is not going to happen in my church. I would never baptize an illegitimate baby.” “Now that you know my story,” Pastor Jeff, “can I still come to your church?” 07 NJR DIGITAL MAGAZINE The young lady whose pastor rejected her offer of help, and refused to baptize her baby? She ended up in another church where she learned that God loved her. Her baby was baptized. She was asked to work with young people there. She went on to finish her education and eventually went into mission work. Today she and her daughter live and work as missionaries in Africa where they tell people that there is a God who loves everyone always. God is love. This is the God the world needs to know!
