A sweet elderly lady with whom I am friends on the FB remarked that her daughter told her last evening’s sermon was ‘potent’ (her word, certainly not mine). This observation provoked the following reply from myself-
My sermons are SO POTENT that 90% of the people who hear them on Sunday morning never have to come back Sunday night or Wednesday night. Heck, sometimes they’re SO POTENT that people will skip weeks and months just because they’re basking in the effervescence that is my sermonizing….
I just can’t help myself….
you poor soul, i too have struggled with the art of receiving a compliment. and yet maybe a true word is spoken in jest, the strong meat of your sermonising may well require extra time for less sturdy souls to digest?
