I’ve been getting nostalgic lately…I grew up in a very intellectual church. There were solid people there but as a whole the teaching was over my head. Then I spent 10+ years in church bliss. In the inner city we were serving, I felt complete. And the teaching was spot on: illustrations, gospel presentation, conviction. Now I go to a soft foot church. Don’t bother nobody and have a beer after service. Makes me miss the old time religion sermons that urge you to “keep in step with the spirit” because the time is short. That kind of sermon leaves open ends and it gives you hope that Jesus does love us sinners and that he has a plan. Hallelujah!
