Emphasis Preaching Journal

Jonathan was one of five children. As the youngest he was often spoiled, at least as his four older brothers and sisters saw it. He would play in the basement and they would watch over him or accept responsibility for him. Often, when Mom or Dad were busy and wanted Jonathan, they would send one of the others with a message for him to come. Sometimes he would listen to them and come, but often if he was busy doing something fun he would ignore them. In those times his mom or dad would bring the message themselves.
