    Samson was on the road to ruin because he fraternized with the enemy, wasted his strength and was deluded by pride.

    Ordination sermon, involving a play on the names of Samson in the Bible and Sampson, the ordinand, an entertainer, puppeteer, and beauty pageant winner. The whole secret of strength is in using the gifts God has given for ministry and not for one’s self.
