Sharing a life-saving message to Facebook friend in crisis
Moving story of Tim Reilly sharing the good news through social media, at a critical point in a friend’s life.

- A prerequisite for this story: that Tim had a number of not-yet-followers as Facebook friends.

What lessons do you draw from this story?

Mess Prevention - #5796
In 2 Chronicles 18:4 , King Jehoshaphat gave King Ahab this advice before he went running off into battle: "First, seek the counsel of the Lord." King Ahab didn't, and he died in that battle.
