…I wonder if the reason many pastors have gone to topical messages is to satisfy the expectations of people wanting something exciting and entertaining. I mean, which sermon title would draw you to listen, “Seven Sensational Secrets to Success”, or “Continuing Our Study in Romans Chapter 9”? – Steve Green, Extraordinarily Ordinary
“Continuing Our Study In Romans 9″… for sure!!
Very good. Steve is actually the brother-in-law of the president of DTS. It was fun to meet Steve one day on campus.
Bring on Romans 9!
… do you mean draw ME, or draw generic public crowds?
Those would requre different answers.
“Continuing OUR Study” would imply committment to and faithfulness within a local body, would’t it?
How Draconian!
Too bad. I tried to write in the html code symbols around ‘how draconian’ but replacing ‘bold’ or ‘italics’ with “sarcasm”. It didn’t work.
That’s ok. I get sarcasm.
