|bd| My First Sermon

Posted by bendodge on Aug. 13, 2007, 11:07 p.m.

On Sunday night I preached my first sermon! Now, this doesn't necessarily mean I plan to be a preacher; I really don't know. But I think it is good for Christians teens to preach at least once or twice, because you will usually need to sometime in your life (for example, when a church is temporarily without a pastor).

I know this may seem somewhat bizarre to most readers, but I guess you'll just have to get over it. I was very, very nervous (and going way too fast), but I actually enjoyed it. Here are links to my 6-minute sermon, in case you want to read/hear it.

In other news (code for blog filler), school is starting in a few days, so I expect my productivity to bite the dust pretty soon. I have found a 3D artist willing to do sprites for me though, and so with new sprites and new effects (<a href="http://img381.imageshack.us/img381/6843/previewag8.jpg">early screeny</a>), I think I will finally have a new version of Galaxy Belchers soon. I really need a better name though.

When the guy in the tech booth has to run up on stage to preach, something is wrong.

I didn't have to run up on stage; someone else filled in for me. And it was all planned; there wasn't any shortage of regular preachers (3 in fact).

How did you know I did sound? I don't remember saying it before.

Doesn't seem that bizzare to me, isn't it quite common in baptist churches?

I believe in no god. Except for the flying spaghetti monster of coarse.

Ha! That was good.

I could never preach a sermon even if it was for a few minutes. I'm too nervous for that. :P

Glad to know there is another Christian here. I'm gonna add you. :)

You're surprised there's another Christian member, try a Christian admin.

Three guesses to figure out which one it is, the last two don't count.

I was referring to if *I* had to preach.
