METHODIST CHURCH NOTES
Rev. Ernest Robinson preached III
eloquent sermon last Sunday morning
from the text. "The Kingdom of CO.
is at Hand His subject was IRA
p dio Religion" and he drew an ana
logy between radio and religion. Hi
= inference was that they are mucl
: alike. The mind, the heart and tn
soul are the stations that send tn
| messages to God through prayer
They are also the receiving station
where God makes known His desire
to us, but only when our bodies. ar
in tune and heart and mind in har
mony with Him can the messages b
sent and received. He closed thi
fine sermon with an earnest appea
I for all to be splendid operators an
| good receivers. In tho evening,
= review fthe book. "Pollyanna,' an
it's wonderful Christian message wa
enjoyed by good sized audience.
l Next Sunday morning at 1870, Mr.
; Robinson will speak upon the subject
