2 Timothy 2:1-4

She said, ''We always sang it in Vacation Bible School.'' I said, ''Well, I didn't go to Vacation Bible School, so that's probably why I've never heard of it.'' But the song, very familiar to many of you, ''I'm in the Lord's army'' (ha-ha). I'm in the Lord's army. I may never march in the infantry. And with kids, you had motions, so you'd march. I may never ...
