    The first of Three 2006 Advent Sermons

    (1) Last year I heard an incredible song that was the background to a house whose lights were set to this song. Those of us who have e-mail probably received it at least once last season.

    The introductory sermon to a 40 Days of Purpose campaign

    Communion Meditation for Sunday, October 1, 2006

    (1) A few years ago, I used Matthew 26:30 for a communion meditation. ‘Then they sang a hymn and went out to the Mount of Olives.’ I remember asking ‘What kind of a hymn did they sing?’ I recently re-encountered this verse when I was preparing for another sermon and clicked on the verse note for ...read more

    The summer before my senior year in high school I had one of those spiritual experiences that is hard to explain because it was only God and me in my bedroom one warm August evening.
