Bad Cold by Shel Silverstein

  This cold is too much for my shortsleeve. Go get me a Kleenex--and fast. I sniffle and wheeze And I'm ready to sneeze And I don't know how long I can last.... Atchoo--it's to wet for a kleenex, So bring me handkerchief, quick. It's--atchoo--no joke, Now the handkerchief's soaked. Hey, a dish towel just might do the trick. Atchoo--it's too much for bath towel. There never has been such a cold. I'll be better off With that big tablecloth, No--bring me the flag off the pole. Atchoo--bring the clothes from the closet, Atchaa--get the sheets from the bed, The drapes off the window, The rugs off the floor To soak up this cold in my head. Atchoo-- hurry down to the circus And ask if they'll lend you the tent. You say they said yes? Here it comes--Lord be blessed-- Here it is--Ah-kachoooo--there it went.

CIU President Bill Jones Contributes to New Study Bible

"Columbia International University President Dr. Bill Jones is a contributor to a new study Bible that encourages believers to live their daily lives as if they are on a mission - the mission of God.
“The Mission of God Study Bible” published by B&H Publishing Group, is interspersed with essays by dozens of Christian leaders, thinkers and theologians who challenge readers to consider that wherever they are, they are on the mission of sharing the good news of what God has done through the death and resurrection of His Son Jesus."

The essay by Jones titled “Developing Missional Leaders” is appropriately found at chapter four of Ephesians.
