    FOR DISCUSSION:  How would your church have handled this visit?

Mike Jones, who has a forthcoming book, told The Denver Post that several people shook his hand during the visit Sunday and told him, "God bless you."

      It would be interesting to see the members that have sat in the same pew for 40 years scrambling for a new pew as far away as possible!!  Just kidding (sort of).  It would be a great chance to really show what being a Christian is all about.

      If shaking his hands and telling him “God bless you” will win one more for Jesus, then that church is where I want to be. What love!
