SUNDAY MATINEE MUSIC VIDEO “2 Gospel Songs by Sam Cooke” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0azkZ751hSg Here are 2 of my favorite gospel songs made popular in the early 1950s by Sam Cooke & The Soul Stirrers. "Touch the Hem of His Garment" re-tells the amazing story of the chronically ill and socially outcast woman who touches the hem of Jesus's garment (His prayer shawl) to be healed (Matthew 9:20-21)--the more you learn about this story the more fascinating it becomes. Every time I play this song it feels like I’m reaching back into history, witnessing the significance of this woman’s healing beyond just the physical restoration of her body.

"Jesus Gave Me Water" is the story about the Samaritan woman who meets Jesus at Jacob’s Well, a public watering place near Mount Gerizim (a place of spiritual significance). Jesus was en route to Galilee, having just finished a lot of work in “respectable Judaea” and taking a break in “unrespectable Samaria,” home of racial half-breeds looked down upon by Pharisees and Romans. Jesus sat down by the well while the disciples went to buy bread. When a solitary gentile woman came to draw water, he broke at least two social and religious rules when he asked her to give him a drink. A strange conversation followed, untwisting the barriers between natural and spiritual, literal, and eternal, condemnation, and redemption. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0azkZ751hSg

Commandments And Curses (27:1-26) Neal Pollard This chapter constitutes the start of the third discourse of Moses, a short sermon covered only in chapters 27-28. Moses’ third sermon, to the delight of homiletics’ teachers, has three points: (1) Covenant Renewal (27:1-26), (2) Blessing And Curses (28:1-48), and (3) The Threat Of Captivity (28:49-68) (Smith, 526). Here, Moses tells God’s people…

Deuteronomy 11:26-32 26 “Behold, I set before you today a blessing and a curse: 27 the blessing, if you obey the commandments of the Lord your God which I command you today; 28 and the curse, if you do not obey the commandments of the Lord your God, but turn aside from the way which I command you today, to go after other gods which you have not known.29 Now it shall be, when the Lord your God has…
