Those Historic Christian Hymns Are Just for Old Folks, Right?

Uh, no. Not at all. As a matter of fact, the two video clips I post below are remarkably moving testimonies about how profoundly important those hymns can be...for children!

Check 'em out.

Item 1) Modern hymn writer Keith Getty, in this fascinating 4-minute vidcast, talks about Cecil Frances Alexander, a musician who, two centuries ago, "realized that the music of her time was beginning to lose its focus and quality. Fearing that this decline took away from the heavenly glory we are meant to revel in, she made it her mission to bring new inspiring and faithful music to her worship community. She wanted to present young people with songs that encourage them to have big thoughts and greater understanding about their faith."



Item 2) Joni Eareckson Tada talks about her deep gratitude for her parents teaching her the great hymns of the Christian faith when she was a young girl. She does so in a remarkable moment when she joins the Getty family in their ongoing family hymn sing. The whole event is inspiring and fun but you'll find Joni's testimony (just before she joins the Gettys in singing") at about 8 minutes into the clip.

The Latest WSWK Activity Pages Are Here!

The "Great Hunkering Down" has kept us out of the 12 senior living facilities where we are honored and blessed to present our "When Swing Was King" shows every month. That's a bummer, no doubt.

But instead of just twiddling our thumbs and waiting for permission to re-enter the premises, we have been creating and sending over "Anti-Boredom" packets with quizzes, quotations, personal notes, and a few photos.

They have been received warmly and wonderfully by both the residents and by the activity directors. They have also been appreciated by some of you guys, especially those who not only have fun taking the quizzes yourself but who then pass them along to the seniors (and baby boomers) among your own family and friends.

Well, here you go with # 8 in the series!

#7 in Our "Anti-Boredom" Series Has Been Sent

Last week we received a very inspiring note from one of our friends who lives with his wife in one of the senior care facilities where we present our "When Swing Was King" shows every month. In that note, he refers to the "Anti-Boredom" pages we have been sending their way -- pages with personal notes, photos, quotations and Scriptures, and a bunch of informative and entertaining pop culture quizzes.

Below I print Tom's delightful note AND THEN I give you right here the link for #7 in our activity packet series, the latest we sent over to the facilities. We're pleased to hear that not only are they being appreciated in all 12 of the senior care centers on our "When Swing Was King" schedule, but that many others are having fun with them as well. For instance, one facility is passing them along to the other facilities in their system. In other cases, internet surfers are "playing the game" themselves while some then copy the pages off and send them to friends and family who need a little lifting up.

We are really thrilled with the success of this outreach. Thank You, Lord.

# 7, by the way, features 30 Multiple Choice questions, 20 Matching questions, a few quotations about patience and hope, 10 Fill in the Blank questions, 10 Finish the Line questions, and the answers to them all. Again, you'll find it right here.

And now for Tom's encouraging note, accompanied by the lovely photo he sent with it -- a photo that now adorns our refrigerator.

Denny,

It seems to me that I have written to you and thanked you for providing puzzles,
etc. for us at --------.  So, if that’s the case, then I’ll just say Thanks Again.  My 93-year old memory is not what it once was.  I really miss your “When Swing Was King” appearances as this WWII vet relates to the music in the 40s and 50s.  So hope we return to normal soon.

We see this on our bedside table every morning and try to “Live up to it.”

Tom

Ministry in the "Great Hunkering Down" Era

Despite the quarantine that has shut down so much around the world, Vital Signs Ministries has found ways to keep serving Christ in the specific areas of mercy, encouragement, the gospel, and the sanctity of life.

The Latest “When Swing Was King” Anti-Boredom Activity

The latest "Activity Pages" (pop culture quizzes, points to ponder, and a personal note from Claire and I) have been sent over to our "When Swing Was Fans" and, for that matter, to all the residents of the 12 senior facilities where we present our show every month. We're doing this to help them deal more successfully with the boredom and loneliness created by the mandated quarantines. And we're delighted to say they are being very warmly received and appreciated.

This time around we have 30 general knowledge Multiple Choice questions, 20 Fill-in-the-Blank questions dealing with song titles and lyrics, a few Duke Ellington quotes, a few nifty poster pics, and an idea about how to use the alphabet as a game source.

Here's the link that will take you to "Activity Pages" Number 6 AND the previous 5.

Of course, we also invite you to not only join in yourselves but to pass along these anti-boredom exercises to seniors among your own family and friends (including those baby boomers!) to give them a lift too. Thanks.

The “When Swing Was King” Anti-Boredom Packet #5

Right here you will find the 5th installment of our "When Swing Was King" activity pages designed to help our friends living in the 12 senior facilities where we present our show every month. And, of course, they can be effectively used by absolutely anyone anyone else who is bored by the isolation imposed by these mandated quarantines. With these quizzes and quotations we hope to share items of interest, kindle memories, and give tidbits of fun information that can be passed along to others.

This time around we have 30 general knowledge Multiple Choice questions, 20 Fill-in-the-Blank questions dealing with old Western TV shows, and then several provocative quotations about Easter.

Claire and I sure miss all of our "When Swing Was King" fans and we are so looking forward to the time we can come back and present a "When Swing Was King" show to them. But until then, we will at least keep sending these activity packets.

And please remember, you can share these activity pages with the other seniors and baby boomers among your family and friends.

Happy Easter, everyone!

Points to Ponder for Passion Week

Here are a few quotations about the resurrection of Jesus that you might find useful. We suggest you not only reflect on them yourself but also use them in your prayers and for Easter cards and social media posts.

“I am the resurrection and the life.  Whoever believes in Me, though he die, yet shall he live, and everyone who lives and believes in Me shall never die. Do you believe this?” (John 11:25-26)

Clarence W. Hall wrote, “The resurrection of Jesus changes the face of death for all His people. Death is no longer a prison, but a passage into God’s presence.  Easter says you can put truth in a grave, but it won’t stay there.”

“According to His great mercy, He has caused us to be born again to a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead.”  (1 Peter 1:3)

Timothy Keller in his book, The Reason for God: Belief in an Age of Skepticism, wrote this — “If Jesus rose from the dead, then you have to accept all that He said; if He didn’t rise from the dead, then why worry about any of what He said? The issue on which everything hangs is not whether or not you like His teaching but whether or not He rose from the dead.”

“If the Spirit of Him who raised Jesus from the dead dwells in you, He who raised Christ Jesus from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies through His Spirit who dwells in you.”  (Romans 8:11)

Charles Colson wrote, “I know the resurrection is a fact, and Watergate proved it to me. How? Because 12 men testified they had seen Jesus raised from the dead, then they proclaimed that truth for 40 years, never once denying it. Every one of them was beaten, tortured, stoned and put in prison. They would not have endured that if it weren’t true. Watergate embroiled 12 of the most powerful men in the world -- and they couldn’t keep a lie for three weeks. You’re telling me 12 apostles could keep a lie for 40 years? Absolutely impossible.”

“If you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved.”  (Romans 10:9)

Philip Yancey wrote, “In many respects I find an unresurrected Jesus easier to accept. Easter makes Him dangerous. Because of Easter I have to listen to His extravagant claims and can no longer pick and choose from His sayings. Moreover, Easter means He must be loose out there somewhere.”

“Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures, that He was buried, that He was raised on the third day.” (1 Corinthians 15:3-5)

“According to the laws of legal evidence used in courts of law, there is more evidence for the historical fact of the resurrection of Jesus Christ than for just about any other event in history.”  (Harvard Law Professor Dr. Simon Greenleaf)

John MacArthur wrote, “The truth of the resurrection gives life to every other area of gospel truth. The resurrection is the pivot on which all of Christianity turns and without which none of the other truths would much matter. Without the resurrection, Christianity would be so much wishful thinking, taking its place alongside all other human philosophy and religious speculation.”

“Christ the Lord is risen today, Sons of men and angels say. Raise your joys and triumphs high; Sing ye heavens, and earth reply. “ (Charles Wesley from the hymn “Christ the Lord is Risen Today.”)

Easter's in the Front Yard!

Our yard signs are amateur, no doubt about that. But the banner is a bit more professional. Nevertheless, with them all is the sincere desire to promote a bit of color, hope, and joyful witness for Christ in our neighborhood.

Happy Easter, everyone! Christ is risen!

#4 In Our Quarantine Activities For Seniors (And Maybe You Too!)

Okay, this morning we sent out the latest “When Swing Was King” activity pages
to the 12 senior facilities where we normally do our program every month. We're told by the activity directors that the quizzes and trivia and personal notes that we've been creating have been very warmly received. That's great news. And, as we've mentioned in previous posts about this matter, please feel free to copy the material and send them along to seniors (including your baby boomer buddies) as a little help with the "quarantine blues."

--- 

Hey, friends! This time around we have another 40 Multiple Choice questions for you (with answers provided afterward) as well as a few “points to ponder” that we hope you will enjoy. For next time, we are preparing a couple of pop culture-themed crossword puzzles for you to try.

Despite the quarantine, Claire and I are keeping busy. For instance, we are engaged in a lot of correspondence, learning how to use Zoom for video conversations (amazing technology), home projects, and creating these activity pages for you. We are also doing a lot of reading, some writing, and I’m working on a sermon I’ll be giving at Emmanuel Church this Sunday morning. I will actually be preaching to an empty church sanctuary while some tech guys will “live stream” the video over the internet. Unusual times we’re living in, huh?

But, I’m sure, like many of you, we are earnestly praying for America and the world, asking the Lord to deliver us from the virus (and the fears associated with it), to get our economy back to some degree of efficiency, and yet to learn those crucial spiritual lessons He has for us in this crisis.

We miss you all. But we do hope these pages we’re sending over bring a little relief from the tedium of these quarantine days. Keep looking up!
