During this summer’s WOW, one
of the Carnageys’ friends, Britton,
called them on his cell phone and
placed it on the stage behind Scott
so Amy could hear us and join in.
(Praise God for unlimited mobile-to-
mobile minutes.)
The Carnageys’ Bible class wanted
to do more, and pitched the idea of
a devotional on their lawn. So, on
a recent Sunday night, about 300
of us parked, with permission, at a
nearby elementary ____________
school. Ministers and
volunteers loaded
us into church
buses and drove us
to the Carnageys’
neighborhood.
It was drizzling,
and I worried that
my girls would get
wet and that my
littiest one would
fuss. But the rain
subsided and, as we
waited for the buses
to finish unloading, a slight sliver of
rainbow appeared, just behind the
Carnageys’ home.
On their lawn, in their driveway,
on the street, we stood and sang
hymns, from “Shout Hallelujah” to
Chris Tomlin’s “Our God’ (“Our God
is healer, awesome in power”).
Scott led the songs and struggled
at times to get through them. We
all did. Voices dropped in and out
during the brief worship service. It
was incredibly emotional.

CBS News correspondent, shares stories of faith beyond the headlines.

SUNDAY NIGHT: Church takes devo on the road
For me, the hardest song to sing
was Matt Redman’s “10,000 reasons.”
Last year my mother died after a
five-month battle with pancreatic
cancer. At her funeral, we played Zoe
Group’s rendition of the song over a
slide show of pictures of my mom.
And on that day when my strength
is failing, the end draws near and my
time has come. Still my soul will sing
your praise unending, 10,000 years
and then forevermore.
Amy, Luke and their girls sat on
their porch and sang
along. She’s immu-
nocompromised,
so we had to keep
our distance. Before
the final prayer, she
stood, thanked us and
said, “This is what
church is about.”
The next morning,
Luke shared a video

sounded better than I
remember. The best part of the video
was hearing their neighbor say, “I’ve
never seen anything so wonderful.”
Neither have I — but it pales
in comparison to what’s to come.
Romans 8:18 tells us that our
present sufferings are not worth
comparing to the glory that, one
day, will be revealed in us.
Until that day comes, I’ll stop
complaining about Sunday nights.
