MercyMe's Bart Millard thought his father was going to kill him. As a boy, Millard endured three or four beatings a week — but he eventually got the dad he always wanted. Arthur Millard Jr., at a time his son Bart called "his biggest and scariest." The elder Millard once was 360 pounds. (Photo: Submitted) His dad switched from a razor strap to a wooden paddle halfway through the beating. Bart Millard, only 8 or 9, was terrified. He’d been beaten before, often. But this time was different. Bart Millard, lead singer of Christian band MercyMe, said the worst pain he ever felt was when his father said, "I don't care." His father ambushed him and grabbed the boy with one arm, waling away with the other with a growing rage his son hadn’t seen before. “He beat me like a dog on a leash,” Millard said. “When I made eye contact with him, I thought: He’s going to kill me.” After that, the boy missed two days of school — it hurt too much for him to put on clothes. The physical scars have faded, and Millard, 45, lead singer of popular Christian band MercyMe, eventually found peace with his father shortly before his father died. In fact, it was his father’s death that launched Millard’s musical success. His band, MercyMe, had its first breakthrough with the song, “I Can Only Imagine,” a song Millard wrote about his father dying.

  • “No Trouble in My Heart” Psalm 31: 1-5, 15-16 Fifth Sunday of Easter 1 Peter 2: 2-10 Mother’S Day/Festival of the Christian Home John 14: 1-14
    “No Trouble in My Heart” Psalm 31: 1-5, 15-16 Fifth Sunday of Easter 1 Peter 2: 2-10 Mother’s Day/Festival of the Christian Home John 14: 1-14 Our gospel reading from John records part of Jesus’ “Farewell Discourse” to his disciples. It might seem a little out of place in this Easter season. Why are we now hearing Jesus bid a formal goodbye when we have already celebrated his resurrection? And yet, what better time, for they are plain words of hope and comfort in a time of extreme difficulty and anxiety. These words, and more verses from the Fourth Evangelist are often read at memorial and funeral services because they shed light on the theology of the Gospel writer, especially his (or perhaps her) view on the resurrection. There is certainly comfort in the words. Jesus promised his disciples—and us—that there is something beyond this life. I think at one time or another we have all had images of what lies beyond this life. I watched an old movie a couple of nights ago that showed one writer’s image. Ghost is the story of a man who is shot and killed in a bungled robbery, and he spends some time as a ghost trying to figure out what led to his murder. There are a lot of hokey special effects, but the movie’s description of death is that as the spirit leaves the body, one of two things happen. Either the person’s soul is invited into a stream of brilliant, sparkling light that eventually leads to a vision of human-shaped shadows, or one is dragged off by wispy, black screaming smoke.

The thesis briefly discusses the North Dakota responses to the increasing number of cases of Covid-19 as well as a discussion about the difficulties experienced in the process of creating a faithful and fulfilling worship experience for the congregation of Zion Lutheran Church in Minot, North Dakota. A liturgical script based on a worship setting from the Evangelical Lutheran Worship hymnal, music scores notated by the author and supportive correspondence and Zion Lutheran Staff minutes are included in the Appendix.
