Appalachian Idol tryouts

Tom Sopwith May 14, 2010 at 11:03 am

ever since learning the accordion, jenny had been desperate to join the sunday evening worship band. as she rehearsed her latest song, based on Matt 25:33, she smiled knowingly “this surely is my golden ticket”

Tom Sopwith May 14, 2010 at 11:10 am

plese read in a very english traditional anglican voice – think nicky gumbel:
“today’s bleating is taken from the goat-spell accordion to Luka, chapter 15, beginning at verse 29:
“Lo, these many years do I serve thee, neither transgressed I at any time thy commandment: and yet thou never gavest me a young goat, that I might make merry with my friends:”

Chris Cummings May 14, 2010 at 11:55 am
