House Church Talk - thanksgiving day with John Jay

[David Anderson]

Dr. A.H. Stevens spoke about a visit to the home of John Jay, America¹s 
first Supreme Court Chief Justice, in 1816: 

"I recall the scene in the family parlor, the venerable father and his 
children and the household within his gates, uniting in thanksgiving, 
confession, and prayer. Sir, it was more like Heaven upon earth than 
anything I ever witnessed or conceived. It was worth more than all the 
sermons I ever listened to."

Happy thanksgiving, all. May the joy of the Lord be your strength as we 
approach another year's end.
