I find myself ruminating . . . I keep running yesterdays sermons through my mind . . . I did it through the day yesterday, but I also woke up wondering . . . and while sitting in a tree (I saw 9 does and a 100 in. buck that was probably 2.5 years old) . . . and I have a feeling that I came across as harsh. Straightforward is one thing, but harsh is another. I fear I was harsh. I was dealing with issues that come up quite often in church life, and recently MCC has had a few people voicing thoughts that border on what I talked about yesterday . . . I suppose there were probably a more than a couple dozen who thought I was speaking directly to them. I wasnt. After much rumination, Im convinced nothing was said other than what is biblical . . . but that doesnt mean my demeanor and delivery were as grace filled as hard messages must be. I suppose the article I just read on Dones had some impact on my demeanor . . . and I can find other reasons . . . but the bottom line is, I fear my person may have gotten in the way of the message. If it did, I apologize for my delivery. (At this point) I cant fault the preacher on what was said . . . just for the possible bad delivery. I plan to watch the video of my teaching just to see if my impression is right. Maybe Ill write a more thorough apology then! I just pray the message wasnt ruined by the messenger. And if you didnt hear me yesterday, you probably have no idea what this is about . . . But then, you probably stopped reading before this anyhow . . .
