INTRODUCTION
Recently I saw a young man wearing a T-shirt that displayed this message: If God Has a Refrigerator, Your Picture Is on It! I told the young man I liked his T-shirt, and he asked me if I knew what the message meant. "Well," I said, "I think it means that God loves us like parents love their children. I think it means that God is not some angry, vengeful deity, but rather that God is like that father in the prodigal son parable (Luke 15:11-32)/ who excitedly runs down the road to meet us/ to love us/ to forgive us/ to redeem us/ to celebrate us/ to hug us/ and to welcome us into the circle of his gracious love.
As for my wife and me, our refrigerator is covered with pictures of our family. Every time we go to the refrigerator, we see those beautiful reminders of how much we love our children and grandchildren, and how incredibly precious they are to us. The Scriptures tell us that God loves us like that. . . and then some!
In this book, popular author James W. Moore focuses on the many wonderful qualities of God and the gifts that God gives. As God celebrates us, we are invited to celebrate "God's Beautiful Mind"; "God's Strength"; "God's Urgent Priorities"; "God's Unconditional Love"; "God's Key to Real Life"; "God's Enduring Music"; "God's Greatest Promise"; "God's Healing Love"; "God's Call to Discipleship"; "God's Three Ways of Acting"; "God's Gift of the Church"; "God's Gift of Freedom"; "the Spirit of Christ"; and "God's Blueprint for Life."

Read a Chapter from
If God Has A Refrigerator, Your Picture Is On It
Scripture: 1 John 4:7-12; Luke 15:11-32
His name was Kurt. He was the stocker at the local supermarket. He was hard at work back in the stockroom, when he heard the sound of a new voice on the supermarket P.A. system. The delicate voice was calling for a carryout at register number four. Kurt was almost finished in the stockroom and was ready for some fresh air, so he responded to the call. As he approached the checkout stand, a gorgeous smile caught his eye. The new employee behind the register was a stunningly beautiful young woman. Their eyes met, and Kurt fell head over heels in love!
At the end of the day, Kurt waited by the punch clock to get another look at her. After she punched out, he looked at her card and discovered that her name was Brenda. As Kurt left the store, he saw her walking up the road. Now, he knew three things about her: her name was Brenda, she didn't have a car, and he desperately wanted to take her out.
The next day, he waited outside as Brenda left the supermarket and offered her a ride home. He looked harmless enough, so she accepted. When he dropped her off, he asked if he might take her out to dinner and a movie sometime. She said that that would not be possible. He pressed, and she explained that she would like to go out with him, but she couldn't because she had two children and couldn't afford a babysitter.
Kurt offered to pay for the babysitter, and finally... READ MORE
