Jeremiah, or “Jerry,” is a dalmatian who thinks everyone should have spots, too. Jerry loves to tell really corny jokes.

1 Peter 5:7 – Frustration

Computer On The Fritz

Sometimes life can frustrate us until we break. Unfortunately, that break often comes with sin. When you feel under pressure, turn to prayer instead.

Give all your worries and cares to God, for he cares about you.

1 Peter 5:7

Jerry: I have to use the church's computer because mine in on the grits.
Abby: On the grits? Don't you mean "on the fritz?"
Jerry: No. YESTERDAY it was "on the fritz." So today it's in a dumpster out back of the Waffle House.

If you need a computer, but don't have one, see if your church offers them in the library.

The Eye Of A Noodle

The Eye of the Noodle

Jesus saying “It is easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to get into Heaven” is recounted in 3 of the 4 books of the Gospel. That’s how important a message this is.

But be sure to avoid the common misconception of the passage’s meaning. It doesn’t mean rich people can’t get into Heaven, it means no one can get into Heaven without God, no matter how rich or powerful they may be. Remember the line Jesus says to follow up this well-known statement, “But with God, all things are possible.”

Matthew 19:24

Mark 10:25

Luke 18:25

Jerry: How go the moneymaking schemes, Nim?
Nim: I've given up on them. I read in the Bible that it's easier for a camel to pass through a needle than for a rich man to get into Heaven.
Jerry: No...it's a needle.
Nim: A needle through a noodle? That doesn't sound too hard!
Jerry: No, you...
Nim: Get ready world! Nim's scheme machine is back in business!

Jerry: I am so stressed out!
Abby: Don't let it get to you, Jerry. Although anxiety is a normal response to stress, we should view it as sin because it shows we lack faith in God. Remember the story of the Good Shepherd.
Jerry: But I'm not a Shepherd. I'm a Dalmatian!

Trust in the Lord to fulfill all your needs and desires.

Matthew 9:9-13 – Seek Out Those Who Need God The Most

Matthew 9:9-13 - Seek Out Those Who Need God The Most

Matthew 9:9-13 shows us that we should seek out those who need God the most. Abby misses an opportunity to tell a non-believer about the love of Christ.

Matthew 9:9-13

9 As Jesus was walking along, he saw a man named Matthew sitting at his tax collector’s booth. “Follow me and be my disciple,” Jesus said to him. So Matthew got up and followed him.

10 Later, Matthew invited Jesus and his disciples to his home as dinner guests, along with many tax collectors and other disreputable sinners.

11 But when the Pharisees saw this, they asked his disciples, “Why does your teacher eat with such scum?”

12 When Jesus heard this, he said, “Healthy people don’t need a doctor—sick people do.”

13 Then he added, “Now go and learn the meaning of this Scripture: ‘I want you to show mercy, not offer sacrifices.’ For I have come to call not those who think they are righteous, but those who know they are sinners.”

Abby: I went to a dinner party last week and was seated next to an athiest.
Jerry: How did that go?
Abby: We had nothing in common so we didn't say a word to each other.
Jerry: You should have used it as an opportunity to witness. Jesus ate with the tax collectors and sinners. Remember his words: "It is not the healthy who need a doctor, but the sick."
Abby: Oh, he wasn't sick. He was just an unbeliever.

Matthew 9:9-13 shows us that we should seek out those who need God the most.

Luke 3 – The Baptism of Jesus

Luke 3 - The Baptism of Jesus

Luke 3 – 3:21-22 (NLT)

The Baptism of Jesus

Luke 3: One day when the crowds were being baptized, Jesus himself was baptized. As he was praying, the heavens opened, and the Holy Spirit, in bodily form, descended on him like a dove. And a voice from heaven said, “You are my dearly loved Son, and you bring me great joy.”


Abby: I played in an inflatable pool today. It was so fun!

Jerry: Awesome! You know, water’s very important in the Bible. The woman at the well. The flood. And when Jesus was baptized in the River Jordan, the heavens opened and the Holy Spirit came to earth like a dove. Then God said, “This is my dearly loved son, who brings me great joy!”

Abby: My experience was a little different.

Abby: I jumped out of the water and rolled in dirt as my master called me a “bad girl!”

Psalm 23 – The Lord Is My Shepherd

psalm 23 cartoon

The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want. He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: He leadeth me beside the still waters. He restoreth my soul: He leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for His name’s sake. Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for Thou art with me; Thy rod and Thy staff they comfort me. Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: Thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over. Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the Lord for ever.”

– Psalm 23
