Send us Fan Mail"Today, we speak with Don and Desre Pidcock from Community Church of Lambertville about the Shad Festival, a tornado-shaped faith journey, Scripture engagement, and outreach. Can you relate to a transformed faith from lukewarm belief to active service?"We sit down with Don and Desre Pidcock at Community Church of Lambertville/ First Presbyterian Church and talk about a weekend of worship, Scripture, and surprising connections in a historic Delaware River town. From Shad Fest stories to a tornado that pushed one heart back toward the Word, we keep coming back to the same idea: God meets people through worship, community, and the Bible that's alive. • worship as joining what heaven is already doing • Lambertville’s history near Washington’s Crossing • Shad Fest origins and why shad divides opinion • Don’s faith turning point after the 1976 tornado • Revelation 3:16 and moving from lukewarm to committed • Friday morning Bible study at McDonald’s and public witness • why performing Scripture makes Bible stories feel present • music choices that energize worship and deepen attention • opening church space to the community through skating, groups, and meals Please click on the underlined links throughout.Stop by the the church here, right in the center of town: Community Church of Lambertville/ First PresbyterianSubscribe and share this with someone who needs hope, and leave a review so others can find it.  If you want to do a one-time donation, or if you want to become a monthly partner - PLEASE DONATE HERE: https://playsonword.networkforgood.com/Please keep this ministry in prayer.
