A hospital visit

This morning, I found out that Mike Riddle, one of our speakers, had a burst appendix this past Friday and had to have an emergency operation. He spent Christmas day in the hospital unable to eat anything!

Mally and I visited Mike and his wife at the hospital today. One of the first things Mike said was, “I’m so glad this happened now—I had taken vacation time anyway! By the time my first speaking engagement for the new year (January 20) comes, I will be ready to go—I won’t miss anything!”

Mike and Leslie are so devoted to this ministry—and it’s so important to them that no one miss out on the vital messages Mike brings.

I told Mike we’ll have them round for a “Christmas” dinner once he’s back on his feet.

MORE STUDY

I spent most of the day today reading various materials—also thinking through the February newsletter and monthly supporters’ letter I need to write before the weekend. On Wednesday, I have a radio interview about the Dover Intelligent Design case with the AFA’s American Family Radio and various other meetings.

Tonight, I had my “culture” experience in being dragged along to the live performance of the “Phantom of the Opera” at a theater in Cincinnati with my wife and most of the rest of our family. My wife just loved it! I agreed, of course!

Thanks for stopping by and keep praying,

Ken
