    A funeral sermon for locally favorite guitarist (Idea came from Gene Packwood at: http://kiwirev.blogspot.com/2011/06/untitled.html)

    Because of all of Mike’s music making—much of it on the guitar—and to honor his memory, I thought it would be good for us to think about guitars, guitar playing and life. Guitars improve with age. The older they get the better they sound. Richer, fuller, sweeter. Lives well ...read more

    It’s tough to be on time. And it’s tough to get things finished. In fact, those two items are closely connected. It’s tough to be on time precisely because it is so tough to get things finished. And if you are involved in a great many things, chances are you will never complete them all, nor ...read more

    The loss of a family member or friend can be very difficult. As we get older we begin to lose so many. Death is always a very sad and sobering time. But our Lord offers comfort to sustain us.

    Where has church leadership failed? How should all pastors (shepherds) behave towards the flock of God? We look at Peter’s requirements for this high position. Remember the words “accountability to the Chief Shepherd”.

    Having died in Christ means to be alive in a new life, but the old nature tries for dominance and will not stay dead. Consider yourselves dead to sin and alive in Christ. The great victory is that we have died to sin in Christ and now walk in resurrection freedom.

    Paul calls us to count the present as a gift of God, make peace with the past, and rest assured in the future God has in store for those who are his. (This sermon could easily be modified into a funeral/memorial service message.)

But the truth is, unless Jesus returns first, we will each reach that moment where we cross over from this life to eternity. What will it be like? Will we be at peace? Will we be ...read more
