Usually I'm able to prepare a message about two to three weeks in advance.I know some preachers don't like that. They want to be finishing it on Friday before they preach it on Sunday, but our worship team really likes me to get it done way in advance.

When I was a young kid, my dad, a man of few words, told my brother and me, Boys, Christmas is about Jesus. I thought about what he said, and I began asking the Christmas questions. I've been asking them ever since. I love the answers I've found.

We have a place where we can take people when they come to us with questions so we're not just speaking out of our own opinion. We're really speaking to them out of an authoritative place, not because of what we discovered, but because of what God says.
