A Father's Day sermon where I focus on Noah and how he honored God as a father.
Now I am not a father so I can't speak from personal experience about father-type things. I have worked in children's ministries for a few years, so I like to think that counts for something.

Scripture: John 13:1-20
Paul models Christ. Who you are is more important than what you can do. Our life ought to be walking sermon that people remembers.
I learn this from Paul – don’t just do ministry, live your ministry. • Let your life be a walking sermon.
