Mayberry Bible Study Podcast: Rafe Hollister Sings | Host: Allan Newsome Running time: 1:07:23 Thank you for joinning me for this episode of the Mayberry Bible Study Podcast. This is a special episode of the podcast because it was recorded live on the Mayberry Cruise (Nov 12-17, 2011). We also start off with a special message from Ronnie and Elease Felker (as Barney and Thelma Lou) about the things that are required to get into heaven which will remind you of the scene when Barney was trying to recite the preamble to the Constitution. Download the full lesson plan so you can follow along as you listen to the study. Lesson Introduction: The annual Ladies League Musicale will be held in Mayberry this year. Barney believes he will be chosen to represent his town, and he prepares excitedly for his audition. As he is practicing, Farmer Rafe Hollister drops by the courthouse on an errand and listens to Barney’s wretched rendition of "Believe Me If All These Endearing Young Charms." Rafe begins singing the song in order to show Barney how it should be sung, and he does so beautifully. Much to Barney’s chagrin, Andy encourages Rafe to audition too. After the auditions, Barney believes he did very well. He overhears Mayberry’s choir director, John Masters, say that thanks to Andy, a wonderful voice will represent Mayberry. When Masters mentions that the voice belongs to Rafe, Barney’s ego takes a beating. When they are unhappy. The mayor and Mrs. Jeffries initially object to Rafe’s appearance and his manner of dress. The mayor orders Andy to tell Rafe he did not win. Andy is very upset with this snobbish and unfair decision, but he does go and see Rafe.

Prejudging Others (Matt. 7:1-5) Dealing with Prejudices (Rom. 13:8-10) Peer Pressure (James 1:12) Unconditional Acceptance (Example of Zacchaeus, Luke 19:1-7) Related Links: Rafe Hollister Sings - More information about this episode (and all the others) of The Andy Griffith Show can be found at Mayberry.info.
