Our society is one of constant motion and activity - if we aren’t always doing something we feel useless and worthless. This can invade our spiritual lives as well. We feel like if we aren’t always "on" and ...read more

    I preached this at my grandmother’s funeral. She was 88 and althogh her health had been declining, her death was very sudden. Her last request of me was to officiate at her funeral, which I did and was the hardest thing I’ve ever done in my ministry.

While we knew that Grandma wasn’t in the best of health, and had some past health issues a little over 4 years ago, none of us thought that we’d be ...read more
