Toward the end of December, I’ll have the privilege of preaching a full-length sermon… Not once, not even twice, but three times. Well, one of the messages will be preached twice … once each in two different locations … but it’s the most responsibility I’ve been given thus far and I’m certainly looking forward to it.
Of course, I have three commentaries to write before that, but I’m almost done with one and well-studied up on another, so it’s not going to be long before I can zero in on the sermons.
I’m contemplating doing a two-part message and then doing a condensed version of it at the second location. But I’m not sure yet. Several ideas have already occurred to me, including Making It Real, a study of Jonah and a couple other ideas.
I’m leaning right now toward Making It Real… a very ripe topic when it comes to living out one’s faith, rather than just professing it.
