3. Good preaching always upsets somebody
When people don't hear what they want to hear they get upset. I think it is wonderful that you touched on Rick Warren stuff in your sermon. It is perfectly appropriate and timely. The media has had a lot of coverage on the subject. There is a lot of interest in it. I know that I ask myself what position and what action I might take as a Christian. I would have been happy if I were to come to your church and hear this sermon. I sometimes fear that some priests are too ready to sweep controversial issues under the bed and in doing so they avoid encouraging necessary dialogue.

I will pray for you. I will also pray for your congregation especially asking our Lord to help those who refuse to see.:grouphug:
