Poem
Ever morning Mary and Elizabeth would try to scrub the betrayal of their father off their flesh. "Our dead mother must be crying her eyes out in heaven" Elisabeth said to Mary as they got ready for church. "I wonder what his congregation would think of him if they knew?" replied Mary. "Girls are the two of you ready yet? You don't have time to gossip". "We're ready" said Mary. The Israel family piled into their family car. As Zechariah drove to his church The Voice of God Ministries he quizzed his daughters with Bible questions. "Elisabeth how many books are in the Bible?" "There are 66 books in the Bible". "Very good Elisabeth. Mary who were the parents of John the Baptist?" "Zechariah and Elisabeth". "Very good Mary". The Voice of God Ministries is the biggest Evangelcial church in all of North Carolina. Every time Zechariah Love Israel approached his church his heart fills up with pride. "We are the light of the world. We must guide the people to God" said Zechariah as the Israel family got out of their family car. "Let's get ready to welcome our members" grabbing Mary and Elisabeth by the hand Zechariah and his daughters entered The Voice of God Ministries. Zechariah was a preacher who was known for his over the top sermons. With his knowledge of the Bible and his great speaking ability he held his congregation in a trance. At the end of every worship service Zechariah stood at the entrance of the church and shook hands with his members. Written by Keith Edward Baucum aka The Brown Philosopher aka The Green Poet aka Red Seven
