From the beginning of the sermon to its end, the all engrossing force of the text and the God who speaks through that text must dominate our whole being. With the burning power of that truth on our heart and lips, every thought, emotion, and act of the will must be so captured by that truth that it springs forth with excitement, joy, sincerity, and reality as an evident token that God’s Spirit is in that word. Away with all the mediocre, lifeless, boring, and lackluster orations offered as pitiful substitutes for the powerful Word of the living Lord. If that Word from God does not thrill the proclaimer and fill [him]...with an intense desire to glorify God and do His will, how shall we ever expect it to have any greater effect on our hearers.

NOTES : From Mimi:  Believe it or not, this was served at a temple dinner
one Friday night. It was so good, I asked for the recipe. Low fat, it's
not, but I have had some success using lower fat ingredients such as milk
and sour cream, though I wouldn't bother with nonfat sour cream. I also use
less cheddar than this recipe calls for...or I double everything except the
sour cream and cheddar. Whatever works...it's the best version I've ever
eaten.

A Message from our Provider:

“Our hopelessness and our helplessness are no barrier to (God’s) work. Indeed our utter incapacity is often the prop He delights to use for His next act… We are facing one of the principles of Yahweh’s modus operandi. When His people are without strength, without resources, without hope, without human gimmicks – then He loves to stretch forth His hand from heaven. Once we see where God often begins we will understand how we may be encouraged. #Ralph Davis”
