DESPERATE TIMES, DESPERATE PREACHING


In recent weeks I have been engaging in what I like to call, "Experimental Preaching".  

With all of the distractions of modern day life, the Iphones and Ipods and the...Idon'tknowwhat'sit's, it can take all of a Preacher's massive preaching skills and crowd control talents just to get an audience to pay attention long enough to get through a Bible-based, 3-point, 2 joke, 1 dog story sermon.  It isn't like it used to be when all you had to worry about was church fans and a few tent revival flies.  It's serious now.

So it is too with the modern day Blurch (blog-church).  There is no telling how many things I'm unknowingly competing with right now just to get you to read this Blermon (blog-sermon).  So...

Desperate times, require desperate Bleaching (blog-preaching).  So here goes...

Behold
the
Preacher
in
his study,
looking like
a 
diving
buddy.
See 
the
goggles
on
his
head?
See
the
flippers
in 
his
BED?
What kind
of man
is this
CREATURE?
Just
a
'nother
desperate
PREACHER!
Preaching still
the words
of God
while
struggling
'gainst
Ipad and pod.

Whatever it takes...

As together we stand and sing.
