Now and Then
Hopewell Baptist Church
Sperryville, Virginia
Rev. Ulysses Brokenburr
Pastor
C. C. Lewis
Clerk
We pause in the midst of our daily chores, and try to figure out what our young people are seeking and where they think they are going. Then we compare our youthful years with theirs now. Then we conclude by placing the blame on the schools, poor housing and churches for the behavior of our youth. It is human to shift the blame to another person, or a condition, for this was done by the first man Adam who blamed the woman for his disobedience. Just as it was then with Adam, it is now hard to get a man to tell it like it is.
