I have spent a long week working on my Preaching and Dealing with pain. I was not surprised by how intricately they were linked, rather how they were connected this week. On Monday and Tuesday I was in Madison working on my preaching skills, being sharpened by the Simeon Trust, sitting under David Helm, Paul Winters and Jeff Nettles. This was a great time of sharpening and applying the hermineutical process to the art of preaching. I truly enjoyed this time.
Returning home I prepared a sermon to share the Love of Jesus at a funeral. The pain the family was feeling and then what I was feeling was near unbearable. Sharing the love of Jesus at a funeral is hard to communicate when they are so focused on their pain.
In the next few days I look to apply what I have learned to the preaching process, all the while individuals are returning to Jesus. Discipleship groups are starting and more are looking to know Jesus. Pray for us as we continue to share the Love of Jesus with Superior.
