God finished his creative purpose for man in Jesus, not in Adam. The real question is not whether you accept Jesus, but whether you dare believe God has accepted you. Tommy Tyson brings that home to the West Virginia Capon Springs CFO in 1973 with a boy who bragged that the president of Yale would get no bath. The man was his daddy, and the boy had the tub stopper.
Evelyn Carter Spencer asks whether campers are “living on the menu or on the meat.” She describes how a stranger’s devotional book fell open to that exact phrase at breakfast, the same day it had already come to her. Speaking at the West Virginia Capon Springs CFO in 1973, she illustrates unclaimed blessing with the penthouse pool in her own apartment building that she still had never used.
Evelyn Carter Spencer preaches on moving from surveying the cross to standing on resurrection power. She pictures God as the card player who always sees the last hidden card you are holding. She describes campers stuck in a mud puddle of shame instead of accepting that their sin debt is already paid. She gave this message to the 1973 West Virginia Capon Springs CFO.
Evelyn Carter Spencer turns prayer into the image of a hound loosed on a soul. Once she “sics” the Holy Spirit on someone, she tells campers at the West Virginia Capon Springs CFO in 1973, he will not stop chasing until they give in. She also recounts her own reluctant first visit here four years earlier, on a scholarship.
Evelyn Carter Spencer tells campers that “everything you need, you have” already in Christ. She compares unforced growth to an apple tree bearing fruit and to autumn leaves changing color on their own schedule. She prays for the West Virginia Capon Springs CFO in 1973 to see something new, then leads two musicians into the song “He Really Loves Me.”
Evelyn Carter Spencer teaches her hearers to consider God before they ask him for anything, and admits she does not like to waste prayers on things she has not thought through.
Healing rests on the bodily resurrection, Tommy Tyson tells the West Virginia Capon Springs CFO in 1973, because a man is on the throne of the universe and it is his risen life that reaches our bodies. Sunlight comes through the purple glass windows around him, and he makes it his picture of Christ shining through a person and showing what that person truly is.
Tommy Tyson was ready to walk out on a cold church. Then Rufus Mosley asked him, “Wouldn’t it be a wonderfully good thing if you had enough fire to melt the ice?” We are not our own, he tells the West Virginia Capon Springs CFO in 1973, and he passes on three rules for keeping a fire: shake the clinkers out, keep the draft open, keep adding fuel.
A Chicago schoolboy told his teacher he thought well of himself because “my God didn’t make any junk.” Tommy Tyson called spiritual inferiority the greatest blight there is, opening the West Virginia Capon Springs CFO in 1973. He promised campers that the Holy Spirit would spend the week stirring up gifts they did not know they carried.
