How do I use OUTER JOIN to email different message than the default

Question

I have a devotional that goes out daily from a MOBILE table containing:
mob_id
calendardate
title
scripture
body
The same devotional goes out to 3 different churches.
I have a second TABLE called EDITED that holds an edited version of the daily devotional, containing:
edit_id
calendardate
etitle
escripture
ebody
The query should look in the edited table for a devotional first to see if it matches the current date then send it out. Otherwise it sends out the default devotional  that corresponds with the current date.
I would like to send out in replacement of the default devotional  to the church that edited the devotional.
I am using the following outer Join but it doesn’t work. It sends the same devotional to everybody.
<cfoutput>
<cfloop query="getClients">
<!--- determine if there is an edited version of the devotional available for this day --->
<cfquery name="getDevotional" datasource="#application.dsn#">
SELECT mobile.mob_id, mobile.display_date, mobile.title, mobile.body, mobile.scripture,edited.edit_id,edited.contact_id,edited.etitle,edited.escripture,edited. ebody
FROM mobile
left outer join edited ON mobile.display_date = edited.display_date
where mobile.display_date = <cfqueryparam value ="#dateformat(now(), "YYYY-MM-DD")#" cfsqltype="cf_sql_date">
</cfquery>
What am I missing?

Answer 1

Yes the getClients grabs all information pertaining to the client and their layout information.
<cfquery name="getClients" datasource="#application.dsn#">
select *
from (subscriber INNER JOIN contacts ON subscriber.contact_id = contacts.contact_id)INNER JOIN layout ON contacts.contact_id = layout.contact_id
where subscriber.timezone = 3
</cfquery>
Below is the logic I used to determine which version to use:
<cfif getDevotional.edit_id NEQ "">#GetDevotional.etitle#<cfelse>#GetDevotional.title#</cfif>
