On the Way East

Thursday, July 24, 2008 ·

Well, here we are in Alamogordo, New Mexico...We have picked up the Jeep, and all the towing equipment is installed and tested. Tomorrow we have a full day of driving ahead of us. We hope to make it most of the way to Denver, and since this is our first extended drive with the Jeep in tow, we appreciate your prayers for our travels.

On the way here we stopped off to visit with Joel Tetreau and his family for an evening and left after breakfast for New Mexico. As always, an evening with Joel leaves my mind buzzing with ideas. It is exciting and refreshing to see God working, and we are grateful for the generosity of His people (thanks especially to Southeast Valley Baptist Church). We cannot help but praise the Lord for his provision.

While we were here in Alamogordo, we were invited to minister with my Sister and Brother in Law's church, First Baptist Church in La Luz. We were here nine months ago, and this dear church family was tremendously encouraging to us. This visit was no exception, and it was great to be back. We really have fallen in love with this area!

As always...thank you so much for your prayers. We still have to sell our vehicles soon so that we can finish paying for the jeep and a few things that it needs: tires, AC, and a few other things. Especially, please continue to pray that the Word of God would be made clear and come alive in the hearts of those to whom the Lord allows us to minister.

What Is A Sermon In Song?

Preaching

...should deliberately and consciously adhere to what the Bible says, where the Bible says it, and with the emphasis that the Bible gives. However, this should not mean that preaching is a dry, academic, exercise in boredom. No one should ever be put to sleep with the Word of God.

Music

...is like a language, with the volume turned up on the emotion, and when this is accompanied by lyrics, the result can be both powerful and memorable. Because of this, music must be used carefully and with particular attention to what is communicated to the audience (both lyrically and emotionally).

When these elements are brought together, you have a Sermon in Song!
