Help is on the way to Florida, Georgia and the Carolinas as the remnants of Hurricane Debby continuing churning up the east coast.
Rivers and lakes stand above flood stage from west Florida up into northeast Georgia and predictions of flooding continue through the Carolinas as what was Hurricane Debby makes its way north. At least six deaths are being blamed on the storm.
The storm is slowly churning up the East Coast dumping significant rainfall. The National Weather Service predicts the storm will still be a Tropical Depression as late as Saturday when it arrives in Maine.
Debby crossed the Florida panhandle over the weekend, trekking across the Southeast to Charleston, S.C., Wednesday before reversing course, coming back on land and turning north.

A Chinese church in Paris is working to reach the more than 600-thousand Chinese who call Paris home. During the Olympics, they are joining with the IMB to pass out pins that not only celebrate the games but give hope. So far, they’ve given out more than 1,000 pins that lead the recipient to a website where they can hear the Good News.

Maybe you aren’t a pastor, but Mark Dance wants to offer you an encouraging word about what you can value in your pastor.
He writes, “Good preaching won’t make up for bad pastoring. How we treat people offstage is more important than how you teach them onstage. Yes, even those members who are resisting all of your initiatives. Most church conflict is the result of slow, relational erosion, not any one issue.
“I believe gradual relationship erosion sneaks up on a lot of pastors, which is why so many are surprised when their sheep dig in their hooves in response to their vision and initiatives. r
“If you try to lead or feed them without loving them first, you may get bit—or worse—ignored.”
