Park Place Book Club Theo of Golden by Allen Levi One spring morning, a stranger arrives in the small southern city of Golden. No one knows where he has come from…or why… His name is Theo. And he asks a lot more questions than he answers. Theo visits the local coffeehouse, where ninety-two pencil portraits hang on the walls, portraits of the people of Golden done by a local artist. He begins purchasing them, one at a time, and putting them back in the hands of their “rightful owners.” With each exchange, a story is told, a friendship born, and a life altered. A story of giving and receiving, of seeing and being seen, Theo of Golden is a beautifully crafted novel about the power of creative generosity, the importance of wonder to a purposeful life, and the invisible threads of kindness that bind us to one another. Everyone is welcome to

Chaplain’s Corner One When you think of the
manufacturing through the automobile assembly line, making car ownership affordable for everyday Americans. Michael Faraday's discoveries laid the foundation for the electrification of the modern world. Steve Jobs helped usher in the age of the smartphone. Of course, history also records individuals who used their influence for evil. One person can profoundly impact the world for better or worse. Then there is one other person: Jesus of Nazareth. He was a carpenter from a poor region of the Roman Empire who became a traveling Jewish teacher. One by one, He called twelve ordinary men to follow Him. Together they traveled throughout the countryside as Jesus taught, performed miracles, and challenged social, political, racial, and economic barriers. Jesus claimed to be the promised King from the line of David and the Son of God. He affirmed these claims through His life, His teachings, His miracles, and the fulfillment of hundreds of biblical prophecies. Because His message challenged both religious and political authorities, He was crucified. Yet He rose from the dead and commissioned His followers to carry His message throughout the known world. Since that time, people from every nation and every generation have placed their faith in
number 1, what comes to mind? Something small? Insignificant? Lonely? Worthless? When we attach something to "1" such as 1 cent, 1 dollar, 1
piece, or 1 person, it can seem unimportant. Yet that only shows how easily we overlook the incredible power of one. The number 1 can be immensely significant and truly life-changing. Consider this: In the Bible, some of God's most significant actions began with one person. When God chose to reach and reconcile a disconnected human race after humanity's rejection of Him in the Garden of Eden (Genesis 3), He began with one man: Abraham. When God wanted to free the Israelites from slavery in Egypt, He started with one person: Moses. When He established a royal dynasty that would ultimately bless all humanity, He chose one young shepherd: David. The principle extends beyond Scripture as well. History provides countless examples of the power of one individual. Without George Washington, Great Britain may have prevailed in the American Revolution, and our nation would look very different today. Thomas Edison helped bring us the incandescent light bulb and the phonograph. Henry Ford revolutionized

Jesus Christ. Although their numbers are now immense, they all came one at a time. Some were young; others were middle-aged or elderly. Some lived moral and respectable lives, while others came from deeply broken circumstances. Some were healthy; others struggled with illness or disability. Many were poor, while some possessed great wealth. Most were unknown to history, while others were famous. Some were highly educated; others had little formal schooling. Some possessed extraordinary intelligence, while others were quite ordinary. Yet each person shared the same need. Each recognized a need for God's grace and forgiveness. Each needed a Savior. And when they entrusted their lives to Christ, they began to experience transformation in ways both profound and personal. What about you? Do you know and love Jesus Christ? Have you committed your life to Him as Lord and Savior? Are you seeking, by God's grace, to remain close to Him and follow His teachings? If not, it is not too late. You can pray sincerely: "Lord Jesus, forgive me for my sins, my doubts, and my failures. I place my trust in You as my Lord and Savior. Come into my life through Your Holy Spirit and begin transforming me to become more like You. Amen." Simple words, yet a profound step of faith. Jesus loves you. Love and follow Him in return.
A Moment to Reflect Take a moment to consider the people who have influenced your life over the years. Perhaps it was a parent, teacher, pastor, friend, spouse, or neighbor. Maybe it was someone who offered a kind word when you needed encouragement, shared wisdom during a difficult season, or simply took the time to listen. Often, the people who leave the greatest impression on our lives are not those seeking recognition, but those who faithfully show care, compassion, and kindness day after day. As we move through the month, reflect on the individuals who have helped shape your journey. What lessons did they teach you? What qualities did they model? How has their influence stayed with you over time? Consider reaching out to someone who has made a difference in your life. A note, phone call, or heartfelt conversation can be a meaningful way to express gratitude and remind them that their kindness has not been forgotten. And as you reflect on the blessings others have brought to your life, remember that you also have the opportunity to encourage those around you. A smile, kind word, helping hand, or listening ear can brighten someone's day more than you may ever know. "Let us encourage one another and build each other up." — 1 Thessalonians 5:11
