Verse of the Day: God showed how much He loved us by sending His only son into the world so that we might have eternal life through Him. (1 John 4: 9)

Amazing Fact: Teachers receive more Valentine's Day cards than anyone else. More than 650 million cards and exchanged by children ages 6-10 years old.

Scriptural Pursuit: What did Jesus say would happen after Peter denied Him three times?
Answer: The rooster would crow.

Wacky But True: 
To Laura King, her three children were acting normal while enjoying dinner at an Italian restaurant in their hometown in Washington state.
But staffers of the restaurant were so impressed with her children's table manners during their Feb. 1 dinner that they thanked her kids and gave the family of five a bowl of ice cream.
It wasn't until King got home that that she noticed a $4 "well behaved kids" discount on her receipt to cover the dessert. "The server said staff didn't even know there were kids at the table," said King, whose children are 2, 3, and 8 years old.
King said it's been entertaining to see all the attention her story has gotten.


Everyone who's had a fender bender knows the cost of repairs is going up.
But few cars can be as costly to fix as "Mr. Bean" actor Rowan Atkinson's rare McLaren F1.
It took more than a year - and more than $1.4 million - to get his supercar up and running.
The high-performance car makes extensive use of carbon fiber and needed specialist care - it took weeks just to get a proper insurance estimate.
The unusual repair job is thought to involve one of the largest car insurance settlements in British history.
