    Whether lost or saved, death fascinates mankind.

    INTRODUCTION: Whether lost or saved, death fascinates mankind. One wreck on the highway will cause traffic to come to a halt for miles because people creep by peering at the occupants to see if anyone was killed. For a while, it gives those passing by (Rubberneckers is the slang for people who ...read more

    It is a strange land when you try to whole on to joy and one another while your hearts are filled with grief. Yet be assured that God will not abandon us because we are in a strange land. There are some keys for thriving in a strange Land.

    Subject: The Blessing of Remembering Text: Psalm 137:1-6 “By the rivers of Babylon, there we sat down, yea, we wept, when we remembered Zion. We hanged our harps upon the willows in the midst thereof. For there they that carried us away captive required of us a song; and they that wasted us ...read more

    This is a funeral service I have used several times, most recently in the situation where I doubted the salvation of the individual, and the family was mixed with believers and unbelivers. It is a way to honor the individual, but still present the gospel

    THE “3 R’S OF DEATH” In school, we used to refer to the importance of learning “The 3 R’s” – and of course we meant “Read’n, writ’n, and rithmatic…” As we gather here today – not to mourn the death of Wayne Thompson, but rather to celebrate his life and all it has meant to those that have ...read more

    This is a funeral/memorial meditation for the memorial service of a man who died after a life of struggle.

    Memorial Meditation – October 17, 2009 - Psalm 23 I love this passage of Scripture because it speaks of life’s most important and most intimate relationship, that of humanity, of you and me, to our Creator. And rather than use terms like Creator, Almighty One, even the term “God” itself, the ...read more

    FBC Gaithersburg: funeral for Julia McNeely Vance, centenarian, physician, daughter of Irish Baptists. Text and poem requested by family. Julia's commitments, nurtured early, brought her into an unusual life. Not delivered by me because of illness.

    That classically Irish face looks out at me from the printed page, and I wonder what it must have been like for Julia McNeely, born a century ago, to have grown up and to have followed her calling. On one side were all the customs and expectations of her day and time … that women would live ...read more
