Closing Prayer
Preacher’s Porch
The very first Sunday I ever came to worship in Henrietta,
I was privileged to get to preach. Now, many of you will
recall that when I moved to Henrietta 10 years ago, I did
not come as a preacher. I came as a school teacher. It just
so happened that I came in the crease of time between
Ryan leaving and Joe Puckett arriving and on the
Wednesday before (we were in town unloading a trailer), it
had been announced that the church was still looking for a
preacher in that week. I signed up.
As I began to prepare for that lesson, there were a
couple of questions that were in the front of my mind. First,
if this is the only opportunity I ever have to speak to this
body, what message do I want to share? Second, if I want
to fit in as a part of this body, what tone do I need to take
while I preach? And finally, what if I make someone mad?
The conclusion I came to actually answered all of these
questions in one shot. You see, I decided that there is no
other message except Christ crucified and the redemption
that comes from Him that would be worthy of either your
time or mine. I also decided that, if this was too
straight-forward, it was still my obligation to speak of this
message of hope and that, if it made people mad, well, at
least it was the truth of the gospel and that I had a greater
obligation to God and His son, Christ Jesus, than to man.
And so I spoke, plainly and straight-forwardly for about 45
minutes.
As it turned out, I offended no one (that I know of), I and
my family were welcomed with open arms, and we
gratefully serve here 10 years later.
Please don't think I am patting myself on the back. That
is not my intent. My intent is to challenge you. If you only
had one opportunity to address a group, a gathering, an
individual, what message would you present? Paul said,
"For I resolved to know nothing while I was with you except
Jesus Christ and him crucified." (1 Corinthians 2:2). But in
fact, we come into contact with people every day that we
may never see again. We talk politics. We talk school or
work or weather. I challenge you; tell them the story of
Jesus. Nothing you ever do in life will matter as much.
In Christ, Todd
