I am a Lutheran Christian and a retired journalist. I understand Pastor Wiefeldt's frustration over the media's "sound bite" mentality, but remember this. God tells us that His word will not return to him void. Did the masses watching the 6 o'clock news hear the message? No, but the reporter did. The cameraman, photographer, and/or soundman did. The various curious onlookers did. The FB friends of all the many who shared this article did. Our job is to plant the seed and let God do the watering, nurturing, weeding and growing. What a relief that is. God will and already has blessed the Gospel seed you planted a thousand times a thousand times more than you will ever know. Lord, thank you for those you have called to minister to us. Provide comfort to all those who mourn with Sailor and her family. Amen.
