I volunteered to give the sermon at one of Spring Creek’s Sunday services. I’ve never done anything like this before, and I’m a bit nervous.

I’ve been preparing for this time for a while now, waiting on God to speak (verbally) about what he wants me to say. I haven’t heard anything (verbally) yet, but I have grown closer to Him with my prep time.

When you know you’re going to be giving a message to 60-70 incarcerated teens you know you need to be prepared for anything. So that’s what I’ve been studying, everything. This has led me down some pretty crazy paths, and some pretty crazy books (future blog post to come).

I’ve put together the outline and I’ll be giving my testimony (briefly) and then talking about God. I figure when you talk about God that keeps things interesting. We shall see.

And speaking of preaching here’s a snippet from one of my favorite sermons by Louie Giglio.
