Many of you have probably heard me say this before – “That’ll Preach!”
That’s because I really believe that there’s a sermon in everything. Everywhere we go, every experience we have, things we see others do (good and bad!), there’s a lesson to be learned, and it’s usually supported by scripture.
It’s how I have always looked at life. I see sermons everywhere!
For example, I’ve done several sermon series based on Country Music…and just let me say that if you can’t see a sermon in Country Music, you ain’t listenin’!
Football, and other team sports are chock full of good sermon subjects…the Bible is like a playbook, Sunday School and Worship are like 2-a-day practices to prepare us for game time, the teams that do basic things well usually win, etc…
I even did an Easter sermon about a Waffle House menu item!
Yes, I believe there’s a sermon in every part of everyday life, because that’s what connects scripture with how we live.
This Sunday, we will be talking about how there’s a sermon in some advertising slogans. I bet you can think of some if you try. Here, I’ll give you one…
‘Be All That You Can Be!’ The Army scored big with that one years ago. But how would you tie that in with scripture? Think about it (John 10:10 might help!).
Find a sermon in something today. It’s easy if you just do it (see what I did there?)
I look forward to seeing you all this Sunday!
Blessings, Charlie
