Charlene asked me today if I had any feedback on my sermon. I groaned. It was one of those Sundays that my brain wasn't quite working as well as I had hoped. I was trying, but it just wasn't clicking.
I have a friend who raves about most of my sermons. He's a little generous in his evaluations. Today, even he said, "Midway through, I thought today was finally the day that you preached a dud, but it picked up around the end."
It's a little embarrassing after coming back from two weeks study on preaching. The course is supposed to help.
There's always next week. Even though today wasn't great, I came home to an email from someone I respect that encouraged me. It's humbling that God uses us in our weaknesses instead of our strengths at times. But it's also good news.
Interesting post...
Let me say this, and yes I could say it tomorrow, but I'll say it now, you finished really well!
