Summary

This sermon series ends with a short story that I wrote years ago. I have picked carefully when to use this story in a sermon. I want to use this tool at the most opportune time in whatever ministry I've served, but I have shared it with every ministry I've been a part of the last 20 years. Since this is the 3rd time I've shared this story on this podcast feed, it will likely be the last time. But I stand by this short story as a powerful, effective way to share the Gospel. Note: These sermons are given at a nursing care facility, and so there is often noise in the background that I try to edit out. This week had a lot of noise, particularly in the middle of the episode with a sustained alarm sound for a few minutes.
