Tuesday Morning Preachers

Three more classmates displayed their preaching acumen on Tuesday morning. It was a good class with good preachers. Gordon Griffen went first. He's a south Georgia boy (he grew up in Delaware though).He preached on the things we could learn from Moses' tent of meeting when God talked to Moses face-to-face. We all agreed that he was good at using poetic language as well as down-to-earth language.Travis Muse went second. This is a picture of Travis with his wife, Ginny. Travis is from the Oklahoma conference of the United Methodist Church (Oklahoma City).
Travis preached about our responses to life-changing bad news. We all liked his use of a story about his son, John David. I also liked his use of a story about his childhood home burning down.

Kent wrapped things up. He is from Athens, Georgia (a Dawg fan--tis a pity) and a preacher in the United Methodist Church. Here he is with his wife Sandra. He preached on how God brings us into our calling at different times of our lives. He dealt with Joshua after the death of Moses. But a problem developed while he was preaching...

His head caught on fire...

Then it exploded.

He got better.
Kent did a good job as well. I'm blogging this on Wednesday. We have three more preachers tomorrow morning, so stay tuned.
