Tonight, three of our young men in Doniphan did the preaching. They did such a wonderful job. They were Logan, Donald, and Caleb. Their lessons were extremely well prepared, and delivered with great poise. Last week, Adam Faughn held an outstanding gospel meeting for the Church here, and he is a young preacher as well. These young men are not only the Church of tomorrow, but the Church of today!
When you hear the kind of preaching I heard last week and this evening, it gives us hope and assurance that there are already men who are going to be there prepared to fight the spiritual battles of tomorrow. They will be able to do a glorious work for the Lord in a world that is becoming increasingly dangerous. They are the proverbial "bright spot" of the future. But, isn't that what all of us should be (Matthew 5:16).
Also, I want to commend the parents of these young men. Sometimes a young person can rise above the obstacles of indifferent or even ungodly parents. Yet, faithful Christian parents serve as a key ingredient in rearing the Christain leaders of tomorrow. There may be a young person who can overcome the circumstances of having parents who are less than a positive Christian example. But, just think of how much higher they could have flown if they had parents who nurtured, instructed, and encouraged them in the way of the Lord. Logan, Donald, Caleb, you all did a great job. Thank you, and may God continue to bless you in His service.
