‘Walking Bible’ gets people’s attention with amazing memory
Ask Charles Matlock to recite a random Bible passage, and he’ll think for a second before delivering the verses as if reading from the book.
Because of his photographic memory, Matlock, 59, has been able to memorize most of Christianity’s holy book.
He is known as the “Walking Bible of West Tennessee.” The Savannah native can recite whole books or chapters by request.
“I started when I was very young, sharing about Jesus Christ whenever I could,” he said. “Memorizing the Bible is a great opportunity to know Christ and share him with others.”
Lesbian fired by Baptist agency to get day in court
The 6th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals ruled Aug. 31 that a lawsuit filed by taxpayers to end state funding of Kentucky Baptist Homes for Children — now known as Sunrise Children’s Services –can move forward.
It overturned a decision by a lower court last year to dismiss the case following a Supreme Court ruling that narrowed taxpayers’ rights to sue over allegations of state-sponsored religion.
The lead plaintiff in the lawsuit is Alicia Pedreira, who was fired from her job as a family specialist at Spring Meadows Children’s Home after her employers found out she was a lesbian. Her termination notice said she was fired because her “homosexual lifestyle” was contrary to the agency’s values. A later policy announcement cited KBHC’s “Christian values.”
