So many guests preachers coming up!
First, tonight we have Bro. Aaron preaching. I sprung it on him late last night as I was still working on a bunch of stuff for tomorrow. I’m heading to Ironwood tomorrow for their youth leaders retreat and I was writing a bunch of stuff out for ideas. I typed up a document that’s about 7,500 words. That’s a lot of sitting on my duff! Only, I didn’t get any study done for tonight. On top of that, I was out all morning preaching a chapel at Lighthouse in LaVerne. I’m even a guest preacher!
Next, I just confirmed with Bro. Joe that he’ll be good to go to preach about 3 times for us this summer. I haven’t confirmed yet with Christian, but he’ll be preaching some, too.
Finally, probably after Comedy Night, I’m giving a couple guys the chance to preach about 10 minutes each. They’ve been working hard on some sermons and will get the chance to preach what God has laid on their heart.
I try to be careful about who I have preach in my place. I’m not interested in just letting anyone up there who isn’t real or doesn’t have a message from God. I’m not into ranting and raving in a “preachy” tone. I’m about sharing a message from God.
You as the listener should hunger for Bible preaching. You should look forward to it. You should shout “AMEN!” when you like it. You should follow along and stay tuned the whole time.
Sleepy crowds are discouraging crowds to preachers. Be alert. Be engaged. And be helped.
