Sunday Night

This may be my favorite time of the week. It is Sunday night and I am back home from church. There is a sense in which Sunday is "game day" for the typical pastor. Everything builds up to Sunday and when you get to this time of the day, it is all over.

I have to say that I thought today went reasonably well. Sure, I could have wished for a better attendance in Sunday School and in the morning worship service, but I thought the service itself went well. There are times that I am the last person to ask about how a sermon went. I can on this occasion say that I felt everything went smoothly. Preaching is a spiritual activity, so you can't really quantify it, but there are just times that you know it has gone better than others. Today was such a time.

Tonight we had a fellowship supper and a presentation by Bonnie Kate Simpkins about her trip to Cuba with "E-Team." I thought she did a very good job and I was glad she had this experience. Who knows what sort of long term effect it may have on her?
