• Taking A Moment's Jemock on the rumor of Clay starring on Broadway's "Spamalot" ...

  On June 23, 2006, I blogged this picture.
  
  You see what that is? You do, don’t you. Isn’t it almost SPOOKY?
  
  It’s a spam pantry. Which translates to a LOT OF SPAM. Which also means SPAMALOT.

  George Bernard Shaw said, "A life spent making mistakes is not only more honorable but more useful than a life spent doing nothing."
  
  As one who professes faith in Jesus Christ, I am committed to encouraging God's children to go about doing good and healing all those who are oppressed --- just like the One whom they claim to be the focus of their faith. Many stay in their comfort zones with nothing more than intellectual beliefs...and claim to be people of faith. Many are afraid to make mistakes...so...(their claim to fame is being the fastest draw in the West with their T.V. remote.
  
  Monday, I featured Clay Aiken on my "Fresh Bread" blog. Today, I bring him into focus one more time. Not because he is a product of my "hero worship." Only Jesus fills that bill for me. However, I discovered on Monday that Clay has even more fans that I realized. He also has more harsh detractors.
  
  So, today...I give honor where honor is due to one I consider a brother in Christ. I believe Clay is actively pursuing the passion of his heart and consciously demonstrating his faith...to bring healing to special needs children. Something he began BEFORE he became famous.
