A few years ago a group of salesmen went to a regional sales convention in Chicago. They had assured their wives that they would be home in plenty of time for Friday night dinner.

Running through the airport with their briefcases in hand, one of these salesmen inadvertently knocked over a table which held a display of apples.

Apples flew everywhere. Without stopping or looking back, they all managed to barely reach the plane just in time for the final boarding call.

All but one.

He paused, took a deep breath, got in touch with his feelings, and experienced a twinge of compassion for the girl whose apple stand had been overturned.

He told his buddies to go on without him, waved good-bye, told one of them to call his wife when they arrived home and explain his taking a later flight. Then he returned to the terminal where the apples were all over the terminal floor.

He was glad he did...

Some encouraging letters we received in August from our listeners around the world:

Location: United States Comments: What a wonderful ministry you provide! While my husband was deployed to Afghanistan and Iraq, he listened to the standard streaming every day and re-dedicated his life to the Lord. Thank you for your faithful service to the Lord.

Location: England Comments: I have several computer radio stations that I listen to with yours as my #1 station. Keep up the good work in spreading the love of the Lord to everyone.

AllWorship.com is a not-for-profit Christian radio station exclusively on the Internet that provides commercial-free worship music in four formats: contemporary worship, praise & worship, Spanish worship, and instrumental worship. Christians in faraway countries, particularly missionaries, who don’t have access to a terrestrial station, can now listen free to Christian worship music and it doesn’t cost them a dime–our ministry picks up the tab for all programming, streaming and music fees. The ministry is completely funded by listeners through donations and has been broadcasting to all corners of the earth since 2004.
