Another Day of Preaching

Today it was my turn to preach again. Prayer was my topic. Things went fine.While I was preaching Matt was on deck. Matt's big news, by the way, is that he's been assigned to the West Ohio Conference of the UMC and will be leading a church in the Dayton area.
His sermon opened with an excellent illustration about growing up in Indianapolis between a Boy Scout Camp and Fort Benjamin.

Scott, who is officially heading to Morristown, Tennessee when we leave Wilmore, preached on the need to live simply, to avoid being drawn into a life of Affluenza (the title of a book/documentary on living simply). He had good illustrations and, as you can see, he offered us living water.The sermons were good today, but we can all tell that our time here is growing short. The energy in the room was way down. Some of Beeson friends are out of town and the rest of us are just hammering away, hoping to get yet another assignment finished.
