Tamara (Tammy) Woods, of Gallipolis Ferry, recently released “I Saw That: Trusting God Through the Eye of Your Storm.” She will be at Willa’s Bible Bookstore in Point Pleasant on Saturday, March 9 from 11 a.m.- 2 p.m. for a public book signing. Woods shared her novel addresses those different situations in a person’s life when they may wonder where God is, especially during their hardships. At times, maybe he is not felt or seen, but he is there, going through it all, good times and bad times alike. As time passes and as one looks back through their life, they can see how he was always there even when they did not see him at the present time. An excerpt from the novel’s synopsis reads: “This book is about learning to recognize the presence of God through your pain. It will probably bring a few tears, laughter, and a lot of teaching to help you understand God has a purpose for your life. Your pain has not been in vain. In your times of greatest sorrow, God has not abandoned you.” “I hope it encourages people that God is there when they are going through troublesome times, he has not forsaken them,” said Woods. “God is present and he is there with them.” Woods and her husband are Courtesy Tamara Woods, author of “I Saw That: Trusting God Through the Eye of Your Storm” will be at Willa’s Bible Bookstore in Point Pleasant on Saturday, March 9 from 11 a.m.- 2 p.m. for a public book signing. involved in a lot of ministerial work. “We see a lot of broken people,” said Woods. “In the world today we need hope and God gives hope.” She began writing as a young girl, mostly poetry and song lyrics. She shared on some nights she would wake up in the middle night to write down poems that formed in her mind while she dreamed. She even kept a notebook beside her bed in order to easily jot down her poems. Woods is a native to Mason County and she and her husband Woodie are local farmers in Gal- lipolis Ferry. She aspired to be a writer as a young girl, but life took her a different route for a time. Last year, after receiving positive feedback from a Facebook post, her friends encouraging her to start writing, she did just that. She spoke with God and told him she wanted to write a novel. Her first idea for her novel was “God’s Love Letters to Women” which she writes and shares on her Facebook page, but God had another plan. He told her to tell her story, starting with the moment she met him. “I could feel God’s presence,” said Woods. “He wrote it, I just held the pen.” Woods shared it took her about a week and a half to two weeks to complete the entire novel. She would work from early in the morning until late at night, the words flowing out of her. Woods has received only promising feedback from her readers since the release of her novel. She commented the real award of publishing a novel is hearing the feedback from the readers. “People are being touched by it, I know it was the Lord,” said Woods. “I feel privileged he let me write it.” Along with being available at Willa’s Bible Bookstore, “I Saw That: Trusting God Through the Eye of Your Storm” is also available on several internet outlets such as Amazon, Books-A-Million, and Barnes & Noble. Also, Woods is selling her novel directly from her home as well as signing it. Erin Perkins is a staff writer for Ohio Valley Publishing. Reach her at (304) 675-1333, extension 1992.

Hepatitis A is a vaccine-preventable liver disease that usually spreads when a person ingests fecal matter — even in microscopic amounts — from contact with objects, food or drinks contaminated by the stool of an infected person. Hepatitis A can also be spread from close personal contact with an infected person, such as through sex. People at increased risk for hepatitis A in this outbreak include:People with direct contact with individuals infected with the virus Men who have sex with men People who use street drugs whether they are injected or not People who are incarcerated People experiencing homelessness People who have traveled to other areas of the U.S. currently experiencing outbreaks Symptoms of hepatitis A include fatigue, low appetite, stomach pain, nausea, clay-colored stools and jaundice. People with hepatitis A can experience mild illness lasting a few weeks to severe illness lasting several months. People who believe that they are at high risk for hepatitis A infection should contact their healthcare provider or local health department for information about vaccination. People who know that they have been exposed to someone with hepatitis A should contact their healthcare provider or local health department to discuss post-exposure vaccination options. Individuals who experience symptoms of hepatitis A should contact their healthcare provider.

And that’s why or on Instagram @isaiahpauley. was brewing with Philistine forces, Saul was instructed to wait for Prophet Samuel’s arrival to ensure the blessing and will of God. However, Saul assumed personal authority, and deliberately intruded into the priestly office when he presided over the required sacrifice himself. When Samuel confronted Saul about his misdeed, Saul merely employed the ruse of abstract confession, “I just knew that the Philistines would come down on my precious people before we were spiritually prepared to fight the battle to which the Lord called us. So, I forced myself to do what you should have been here earlier to do.” There it is again — abstract confession. But, when it comes to our confessing our wrongs and sins to God, doing it abstractly is inadequate. The Scripture is clear about confession, “If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.” For us to receive the forgiveness of God, our confessions are expected to be point specific. Furthermore, right confessions admit to personal responsibility. Others should not be blamed in our place. Be honest with God. Ask Him to forgive. He is full of forgiveness. Abstract confessions do not result in free passes with God. Ultimately, both Aaron and Saul found that trying to get by with abstract confessions did not free them from the consequences of their disobedience. After all, it is better to be real with God. He knows when we are trying to cut the confession corner. And, no, the incident did not involve me. But, it did with someone close to me. That is all I will say. Pastor Ron Branch lives in Mason County and is pastor of Hope Baptist Church, Middleport, Ohio. The privilege of prayer Do we take prayer for granted? One suspects that a great many people do, simply assuming it’s something everyone does, having forgotten, or perhaps never knowing that prayer is a privilege reserved for God’s faithful? An individual might be an embezzler, an adulterer or a drunkard, but let another person asks for prayers and said lout and cheat will assure them, in all sincerity, that they are praying for them, never stopping to think that their prayers have all the effectiveness of throwing a coin in a fountain and wishing for good things. The prophets of old had quite a bit to say about this sort of thinking, for it is not a new thing. Many simply assume that, of course, prayer is going to work for them. However God is quite clear in saying otherwise in the Scriptures. He told the sinful Israelites, “When you spread out your hands, I will hide my eyes from you; even though you make many prayers I will not listen (Isaiah 1:15; ESV).” Later, Isaiah reminds the people, “Behold, the Lord’s hand is not shortened, that it cannot save, or is the fervent his ear dull, that it prayer of the cannot hear; but righteous which your iniquities the Bible comhave made a sepamends (cf. James ration between 5:16). But if we you and your God, turn away from and your sins have hidden his face Search the righteousness from you so that Scriptures and embrace sin, then we damage He does not hear. Jonathan our ability to (Isaiah 59:1-2; McAnulty pray effectively. ESV)” Likewise, Perhaps part we are told, “The of the disconnect is not sacrifice of the wicked is an abomination to the just that we take prayer for granted, but we Lord, but the prayer of the upright is acceptable also tend to downplay the seriousness of our to him (Proverbs 15:8; own sins. We feel in ESV).” our hearts that we are This was a principle understood by the Jews not truly wicked, and based on that feeling, of Jesus’ day, and we assume God feels the affirmed as evidence of Jesus’ close relationship same way about us. But with God. When certain God is not a respecter of men attacked the charac- persons, His standards ter of Jesus, one healed remain the same for all men (cf. Acts 10:34-35). by Him retorted, “We know that God does not When we embrace sin listen to sinners,… (John or worldliness, we make ourselves the enemy of 9:31a).” Likewise, the apostles God (cf. James 4:4). of Christ reaffirmed the Even those things which some might think to be principle. For instance, minor faults can have the apostle Peter tells serious spiritual reperus, “The eyes of the cussions. Lord are on the righHusbands, for teous, and his ears are instance, are counseled: open to their prayer. But the face of the Lord “live with your wives in an understanding way, is against those who showing honor to the do evil (1 Peter 3:12; woman as the weaker ESV).” vessel, since they are All of which should heirs with you of the serve to remind us, prayer is a privilege, and grace of life, so that your prayers may not be we should not simply hindered (1 Peter 3:7; assume that all prayer ESV).” is equally effectual. It None of this is to say that we should give up on prayer. God wants His people to “pray without ceasing (1 Thessalonians 5:17).” But He also wants us to not take prayer for granted. Prayer is a privilege, and we one we should earnestly desire. But we also need to understand what might take that privilege away, and behave accordingly. If we do have sin in our lives, we need to repent, and do something about it. Thus, in the context of prayer, and a right relationship with God, we are told, “Draw near to God, and he will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners, and purify your hearts, you double-minded. Be wretched and mourn and weep. Let your laughter be turned to mourning and your joy to gloom. Humble yourselves before the Lord, and he will exalt you. (James 4:8-10; ESV)” The church of Christ invites you to come study and worship with us at 234 Chapel Drive, Gallipolis, Ohio. Likewise, if you have any questions concerning the scriptures you would like answered or addressed, please share them with us. Jonathan McAnulty is minister of Chapel Hill Church of Christ. The Transfiguration from Luke 9 About eight days after Jesus tells His Disciples that He is going to be killed and be raised on the third day, He takes His closest companions Peter, James, and John up onto a mountain to pray. We learn that the disciples were sleepy and probably fell asleep, but at some point awoke to see Jesus talking with the prophets Moses and Elijah in “glorious splendor.” As the prophets were leaving, Peter suggests building three shelters: one for Jesus, one for Moses, and one for Elijah because, I believe, Peter wanted to stay in that moment since it was so wonderful to behold. Then though a cloud appeared like a fog and engulfed them, and they were afraid. But a voice said from part of His heavthe cloud, “This enly glory, so they is my Son, whom could gain a greatI have chosen; liser comprehension ten to Him.” God of who Jesus was.

These three who saw Jesus in His true wonder Jesus wanted these told not only the oththree trusted Disciples ers Disciples when the to see Him in at least a right time came but also countless millions down through the centuries through their writings of just who Christ really was – our Savior and Redeemer, God’s Son. Never forget that Jesus can “transfigure” (completely change) us too into His holy children. Let’s say a prayer. Dear Jesus, please help us to remember who You really are — our Savior, Redeemer, and Friend. You are truly God’s Son who came to earth to save us and now You wait for us in heaven. Help us to be transfigured and changed into children who love and serve You always. In Your name we pray. Amen.

The Tornadoes committed only 13 turnovers in the setback, compared to 16 miscues by the hosts. See WATERFORD | 7 Patriots owner pleads not guilty to prostitution charges WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. (AP) — New England Patriots owner Robert Kraft has pleaded not guilty to two counts of misdemeanor solicitation of prostitution in a Florida case, according to court documents released Thursday. Kraft’s attorney Jack Goldberger filed the written plea with the Palm Beach County court on Wednesday. Kraft, 77, is requesting a non-jury trial. Kraft was among hundreds of men charged in a crackdown on massage parlor prostitution and an investigation into human trafficking at Florida spas. Ten spas have been closed and several people, mostly women originally from China, have been charged with running the operation.

He then flew operation. to Kansas City to watch his Patriots defeat the Chiefs in overtime hours later. Kraft’s team then defeated the Los Angeles Rams in the Super Bowl two weeks later, their sixth championship since the 2001 season. Under Florida law, if Kraft is convicted, he would be required to complete 100 hours of community service, attend a class on the dangers of prostitution and its connection to human trafficking and pay a $5,000 fine. He could also get a year in jail, although that is unlikely. He could also enroll in a diversion program. He would still have to perform the community service, attend the class and pay a fine, but he would avoid a criminal record.

Now he’s poised to add that franchise mark to the first playoff game with the 2016 NFL Offensive Rookie list of records he already has of the Year and two-time NFL in games, starts, catches and The Associated Press rushing champion Ezekiel Elliott. Dallas struggled at tight end without Witten. Geoff Swaim was the most productive before his season ended with a broken wrist after 10 games. Blake Jarwin tied a club record for touchdown catches by a tight end with three in the regularseason finale against the New York Giants. Those were all three of Jarwin’s touchdowns as he had 27 catches for 307 yards. Swaim had 26 catches for 242 yards with one TD. Swaim got the bulk of the playing time before his injury because of his ability as a blocker, whereas the Cowboys believed Jarwin needed to work on that part of his game. With Witten, the Cowboys get back someone coach Jason Garrett believes is one of the best two-way tight ends in NFL history. The return comes nine months after an emotional farewell ceremony at team headquarters. “We thank Jason for his many contributions to “Monday Night Football” and to ESPN over the past year and wish him continued success,” the network said in a statement. “We have seen many former coaches and players go into broadcasting before eventually returning to the game they love, so we understand Jason’s desire to return to the Dallas Cowboys. In the coming weeks we will determine our MNF plans for the 2019 season.” Witten weathered some criticism in his first season with ESPN, but kept saying he was committed to improving and Pop Warner bans three-point stance and some kickoffs three youngest divisions this season. It’s aimed at changing how offensive and defensive linemen engage in contact when the ball is snapped. Under the new rule, players in Tiny Mite (5 to 7 years old), Mitey Mite (7 to 9) and Junior Pee Wee (8 to 10) will not be allowed to position themselves on the line with their hand on the ground before the snap. Instead, they must either be upright or in a modified squat position with their hands on their legs. “We believe this change is another step in creating a safer, better football experience for young people,” said Jon Butler, executive director of Pop Warner Little Scholars. “By moving away from the three-point stance at our youngest levels we are changing how players are introduced to the sport and how they learn to play the game. We are also setting the stage for our higher levels of play to adopt the change. Because our sport has been willing to evolve over the past 150 years it is safer than ever, while maintaining what makes it so great.” get things going, but we just couldn’t do it.

Baker and Cunningham were next with three points each, while Cole Steele completed the scoring with two markers. Cunningham led Southern with nine rebounds, with McNickle and Baker respectively hauling in seven and five caroms. Waterford made 17-of49 field goal attempts overall, including a 3-of-9 effort from behind the arc for 33 percent. The Green and White were also 15-of-19 at the charity stripe for 79 percent. Russell Young led WHS with a double-double effort of 16 points and 14 rebounds, followed by Zane Heiss with 14 points and Peyton Stephens with 10 markers. Stephens also recorded a double-double with 10 rebounds. Nick Fouss was next with five points and Holden Dailey added four markers, while Wes Jenkins completed the winning tally with three points. LANGHORNE, Pa. (AP) — Pop Warner will become the first national football program at any level to eliminate the three-point stance in further efforts to make the sport safer for young players. The nation’s longestserving youth football organization said Thursday the ban will be introduced in Pop Warner’s Waterford Rebels From page 6 Leading the Rebel defense, Northup, Hicks and Saunders had a steal apiece. Hicks and Mayse each corralled four rebounds in the contest. Brayden Weber and Jeremiah Brown led Trimble with 17 and 16 points respectively, with Weber earning a gamehigh five assists. Blake Guffey scored 13 points and grabbed a game-best six rebounds for the Tomcats, Cameron Kittle added eight points, while Sawyer Koons scored four. Weber, Guffey and Kittle grabbed two steals apiece to lead the Tomcat defense. Trimble’s regular season wins against the Rebels were a 61-60 decision in Mercerville on Dec. 21, and a 49-42 victory in Glouster on Jan. 25. With the loss comes the end of the prep careers for SGHS seniors Braxton Hardy, Nick Hicks, Garrett Saunders, Eli Ellis, Gavin Bevan, Bryceton Folden and C.J. Mayse. Coach Wolfe praised his seniors’ hard work, and hopes than the younger kids will follow in their footsteps. “It hurts because you have seven seniors that just worked hard all year long,” Wolfe said. “When it’s your last one, and you have kids work hard in practice, we always had intensity, and I just wanted these kids to have a chance to go to the Convo. These are the kind of kids that deserve it, we were just a couple baskets short. Two years ago they were right here, they got done playing Belpre and they were 3-19. To think, two years to this day, they leave their careers with 14 wins, they have to be proud of that. “We have some youngsters coming and it’s going to take an awful lot of weight lifting. We have to get stronger, we have to get in the gym and start working. Austin Day, Kyle Northup and Jared Burdette have to be the ones to show the leadership to the ones coming up.” The Rebels will look to snap a three-year sectional title drought and claim the program’s seventh title next year. The Tomcats head into the district with a sevengame winning streak and will face third-seeded Peebles on Sunday at Ohio University. Alex Hawley can be reached at 740446-2342, ext. 2100.

But the Cowboys returned to the playoffs after missing the season before he stepped away. Dallas beat Seattle in the wild-card round for the first postseason victory with Prescott and Elliott. The Cowboys lost a divisional game to the Los Angeles Rams, making it 23 straight seasons without a trip to the NFC championship game since the last of the franchise’s five Super Bowl titles following the 1995 season. Witten’s return also comes with the pressure on Garrett to get the Cowboys deeper in the postseason in the final year of his contract.

(AP) — The Pittsburgh Pirates believe Jameson Taillon, Trevor Williams, Joe Musgrove and Chris Archer give them a good start to their rotation. The next move is figuring out who will take the fifth slot after Ivan Nova was traded to the Chicago White Sox in the offseason. Four pitchers are contending for the job: lefthander Steven Brault and righthanders Nick Kingham, Jordan Lyles and Rookie Davis. Brault and Kingham both pitched two scoreless innings in their first starts of the exhibition season while Lyles allowed one run in two innings. Davis has yet to pitch as he signed a minor league contract Feb. 18, a week after pitchers and catchers reported to spring training. Brault had made 16 starts and 48 relief appearances for the Pirates over the last three seasons, going 7-6 with a 4.68 ERA. He was the International League Pitcher of the Year in 2016 at Triple-A Indianapolis but has yet to gain a foothold in the major leagues.

He then threw 19 of his 23 pitches for strikes against the Philadelphia Phillies last Saturday. “You take all that time in the offseason and you obviously want to do well,” Brault said. “It doesn’t mean everything was perfect or anything like that. It’s just one outing. But it’s nice to get the results I want.

(AP) — Shane Bieber’s last name draws an immediate connection to a more famous global pop superstar, and playful teasing from his teammates. As a rookie last season, Bieber often endured taunts about singer Justin Bieber — the other “Biebs.” “They’d just get angry at me after I’m talking smack or whatever and say ‘All right, Justin,’” Bieber said with a laugh following a recent morning workout at training camp. “That’s kind of they’re go-to.” Well, while the confident right-hander won’t match Justin Bieber’s commercial success or his number of Twitter followers or ever be the subject of endless Hollywood tabloid headlines, Cleveland’s Bieber is making NEW YORK (AP) — Baseball players and management appear headed to early labor negotiations that could lead to significant economic changes in the collective bargaining agreement and possibly a new deal past the current expiration of December 2021. Management backed off its desire for a pitch clock this year in a proposal to the players’ association on Tuesday, putting off most on-field changes to 2020 at the earliest. The union quickly made a counteroffer Wednesday, and the biggest alterations still being discussed for this year are a single trade deadline, most likely on July 31, and lowering the number of mound visits without a pitching change from six to five. While players have proposed major initiatives that impact economics, such as expanding the designated hitter to the National League and adding provisions that make rebuilding rosters with young players less attractive, management has been focused on on-field issues thus far. Management told the union it would be willing to discuss larger economic issues as part of talks that could lead to a longer labor contract. Details were disclosed to The Associated Press by people familiar with the negotiations who spoke on condition of anonymity because talks were ongoing. Many aspects of management’s latest proposal were first reported by ESPN. Among the items put off until 2020 at the earliest are several where an agreement could be reached soon: — a three-batter minimum for pitchers. — increasing active rosters from 25 to 26, including a maximum of 13 pitchers, and dropping them from 40 to 28, including a maximum 14 pitchers, from Sept. 1 through the end of the regular season. — increasing the minimum regular injured list and option recall period for pitchers from 10 days to 15. — a new rule that position players could pitch only from the ninth inning on, or from the sixth inning on when their team trails by seven runs or more. The sides remain in discussion over starting extra innings of the All-Star Game and of spring training games with a runner on second base and ending spring training games after 10 innings. They also are discussing experimenting with shorter between-inning breaks combined with televising the start of innings on split-screens alongside commercials. A single trade deadline would replace the current rules, which have a July 31 deadline for trades without waivers and an Aug. 31 deadline to acquire players who would be eligible for that team’s postseason rosters.

The CFL terminated the 2012 Heisman Trophy winner’s contract with the Montreal Alouettes on Wednesday. The league also informed the eight other teams that it wouldn’t register a contract for Manziel if any tried to sign him. “We advised Montreal that Johnny had violated one of the conditions we had set for him to be in our league. And Montreal announced his release today,” CFL Commissioner Randy Ambrosie said in Vancouver. “We didn’t release the terms of those conditions then and we’re not going to do that now. “We’re trying to do what we believe is in the best interests of the entire league.
