"Luke" was given his name after the Gentile doctor turned missionary turned historian who inked over 1/4 of the New Testament out of love and commitment to the spiritual welfare of one man, Theophilus. His middle name is "Hooks" after my father, Bobby Hooks, who Kennon and I both would tell you is one of the most gentle and godly men that we have ever known. Our great hope is that Luke would become like his namesakes, having a heart for other people to know Jesus and growing into a noble man of God. Our dedication verse is from Luke's Gospel account, Chapter 2, verse 52, "Jesus grew in wisdom and stature, and in favor with God and man." Our prayer is Luke would also grow in wisdom and stature, and favor with God and man.
Nobody better mess with my little brother!
Look dad, I found a new hat! You and Luke can have one too!
SO precious. Thanks for sharing the background! Praise the Lord for godly examples!
