A couple maybe but... <BR/>Preachers at seminary can be questionable too, <BR/>I can count on one hand the amount of good sermons I have heard on a college campus. <BR/>Great preaching is a gift to be cherished when it comes along. but remember Paul didn't even think of himself as a great orator. I like to take comfort in the fact that there is more to being a good pastor than being a great preacher.Bror Ericksonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06913133289813136695noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4164910523346972642.post-43880219089212357442009-01-28T08:42:00.000-07:002009-01-28T08:42:00.000-07:00We have churche"s", I think I wrote you once.
