devotion

especially in baptist churches and churches with a mainly african-american congregation, devotion is the part of service in a church before the actual, normal and general service. any church member is free to come to the pulpit and share how good God has been to them and what he has done for them. This is also called testifying and hence this part of service is also often referred to as testimony or testimonial part of service. Apart from sharing their testimony, they can sing a song to praise God and thank him for being in their lives.

Chiiild, last night during devotion Sista Betty got up and sang the song from the Coco Pops commercial - I swear she did.

devone

Devone is when a food is really, really good! It's kind of like "divine" but only better.

We went to a French restaurant last night in West Hollywood. Let me tell you, the Fois gras was devone!
