I can tell when sermon sticks to the outline, and when it goes off into the arena of inspiration.
Pastor, we are glad you have pastor friends. We don't and perhaps never will.
Evidently God can only work twice in life. To save you, and to send you out to pastor.
Preaching is part theology, and part art. There is a skill in preaching that can be learned.
Pastor Mitchell, we are told, used to practice preaching. We could tell.
Sometimes I hear the voice of God in a sermon. Often I don't.
An unprepared preacher feels threatened by a fact checking audience.
I regularly come home from church and remind myself that what I learned is still true.
I am surprised by how off track the Evangelical movement has led us.
That's all for now.
