My Pastor does good!

I often joke with my pastor that if he wants to have good (read this safe) deacon's meetings he needs to quote Spurgeon often in his sermons. Doing so will make me a very satisfied sermon listener. :)

I gotta say that he did great yesterday without mentioning the Prince of Preachers at all. He read a paragraph from Dr. MLJ on true joy in the morning when he preached in I John and mentioned a You Tubed sermon of Piper.

One of his key points last night was about how not verbally sharing the gospel was a grievous sin. Conviction.

May the Lord continue to bless my pastor with the courage to preach the whole Bible.

Preaching Deacon, Part II

Have been very busy the past couple of weeks. About three weeks ago my pastor asked me to fill the pulpit for the Sunday just passed. I preached in both the morning and evening services (teach Sunday School in the morning as well).

I was empty afterwards. After the morning service I forgot that I needed to drive my oldest son back home (my wife did not have room for him in her car). Left the boy at church I did! Oh, my!

Still, it was a great blessing to be able to preach the Bible to God's people. Our Lord has been so good to me. May His holy name be lifted up!
