So great to be back in the pulpit. I miss my spiritual family when I'm gone. I've said this before, but when I'm preaching back-to-back too many weekends in a row I lose a little passion. It's inevitable. But when I've been out of the pulpit for a week or two I have such a renewed passion to preach. I felt it today.
I now speak about 36 times per year which I think is a great rhythm. I also think a teaching team is one way to make a church less personality-driven. Plus we've got such gifted teachers on our team! A variety of voices is a good thing.
We continued our series titled Potential. We're focusing on some of the themes in I and II Timothy.

Thank you so much for the message this past week. I have attended many churches where the woman issue is not addressed, where women are limited in the extent to which they can lead, and even if the church leadership recognizes the leadership potential of women in the church, they will not go as far as calling the woman a "pastor" for fear that society and the church is not ready. Speaking as a woman, it was certainly healing and a blessing to be reminded of how God values women, and to have leadership strong enough to address the issue from the pulpit.
