Change of Plans…

Tuesday, March 4th, 2008

Last week I announced that I was going on a sabbatical.  There’s been a change of plans.  My wife and I have spent much time in prayer and have come to the conclusion that our time of ministry at my current church has drawn to a close.  March 30th will be my last Sunday at Hanover Pentecostal Church, the church I have pastored for the last 12 years.  We have a lot of great memories from our time with HPC and it was a really difficult decision to make – but we want to be obedient to how God is leading us.

If you could keep Kerryanne and me in your prayers we’d appreciate it.  I still don’t know what I’m doing employment wise but am trusting that the right doors will open in God’s timing.

What does this mean for UnashamedSermons.com?  Well, I’m still planning on maintaining and keep this site running.  Of course after March 30th, the frequency of new sermon postings to the site will diminish dramatically, but depending on where I’m at I hope to continue posting new illustrations/articles as time permits.

Sabbatical

Tuesday, February 26th, 2008

I’m going to be on a sabbatical beginning on March 10th and ending on April 21st.  During that time I won’t be posting any new messages to UnashamedSermons.com

Things will be quiet around here…

Just a heads up that there will be few new posts (and no new sermons) here on UnashamedSermons until after the first week of January. My church is doing a lot of special seasonal services and I’m not speaking during this services.

I just read this article by John Ortberg that I would recommend every preacher of God’s word read!

I came across this great blog post by Mark Batterson today that contains some great thoughts about presentation of sermons series.? Mark talks about the importance of not only what is said but also how it is said.
