Keeping and Spreading the Faith

Perhaps the one bit of advice Murphy will pass on to his successor when he retires in the next few years is to take good care of GPH's little corner of the Assemblies of God world. With guided tours coming through the shop two or three times a day, that is more of an obligation than a suggestion.

"Aesthetics is very important," Murphy says. "But the cleaner you keep the machines, the better they run. I know it's not scripture, but as they say, cleanliness is next to Godliness."
