  • The church and their missionary
    This is a sermon I preached this weekend in Kentucky. The pastor is a man that went to the same high school as I. He was a few years older than me and we really did not get to know one another as friends until many years after we had both moved away from Texas.
    There was a missionary to Togo, West Africa in the service. She is a nurse who works with a hospital in Togo as well as many other hospitals through her mission agency as a leadership counselor. I refer to her several times in the message.
    I wanted to put this up here because a friend recently asked me how a church can be a blessing to their missionaries. This is just a small part of what I want to tell her, but it is a good introduction to what I have to say. Maybe I will write a series of posts and share the ideas I have with you as I share them with her.

  • King Juan Carlos I and Queen Sofia of Spain visit Pensacola
    My son and I got to take part in a unique celebration. We were privileged to hear the King of Spain, in person, give a speech in Pensacola, Florida. Pensacola claims the distinction of being the first European settlement in North America. The King and Queen of Spain came to town to participate in the activities for the celebration of Pensacola’s 450th anniversary.
    I recorded the speech by the Governor of Florida, Charlie Crist, and his Highness, King Juan Carlos I.
    Of course the audio is not perfect, but I am glad I got what I did and am able to preserve it. A very neat memory.
    Interesting side note. I saw several people carrying around Greek flags and signs printed in Greek. Queen Sofia is from Greece.

  • My Thought Spot 26: I’m Back
    This is really just a sound test episode to see how my recording equipment works. I was having problems with the XLR connection on my mic. I fixed that by buying a new connector and soldering it on. The new connector cost as much as the whole cable cost originally.
    I mainly just talk about some interviews I have planned for Missionary Talks and I talk a bit about running.
    There is not much here. It is short. Enjoy.

  • Grace Baptist in Columbus, GA

    Saturday we drove up to Columbus, Georgia. It is about 4 1/2 hours from Pensacola. We were there to be at Grace Baptist Church. This church has been a partner in our ministry for 7 years.

    Everyone knows where they were on the morning of September 11, 2001. For us, we were at this church. We taught a sign language class at the church to help them reach out to the deaf community.

    I preached there last night. They recorded the service.

    My part starts about 8 minutes into the recording.

  • Gluttony
    I heard an excellent sermon on gluttony yesterday. It is not something you often hear preached. The man who preached it is not a pastor, but a medical doctor. I have known Dr. Emmett Manley for about 8 years. I have heard him speak on just a couple of occasions.
    Outside of the content of his message, which you can listen to below, he had an excellent stage presentation. He finished his sermon at exactly the minute he was supposed to. I wished all preachers would learn to do the same. While I realize that not every sermon needs a time limit, when you are in a conference and trying to keep a specific schedule, it helps no one for you to steal time from the next speaker.
    He also had probably 6 pages of notes. I was sitting so that I could see when he flipped from one page to the next. He had a very detailed outline, but you would never know that he was reading from such copious notes.
    I don’t put this here because I have become a health nut. I just think that it is very well presented from a Biblical perspective and this is applicable to more than just food.
    He is speaking to a room full of preachers and missionaries. Well more than half the group was more than “a little” overweight.

  • My Thought Spot 23: Bike Ride
    I took my recorder on a bike ride with me yesterday. I talk about the city where we live a little bit and about some of the subdivisions I ride in. I also take a little jaunt into a village outside of town.
    The original recording was almost 1 hour 30 minutes long. I cut it down to about half that length. There are some sections with just car sounds to give you an idea of how much traffic I had to cross on a couple of occasions. For that reason, I don’t know if this is a good thing to listen to while you are out running. You might think there are cars around you that are just in your headphones.
    This is one of my final bike rides here in Merida. We are packing up and leaving in less than a week. I tried to give you an idea of some of the little villages and sections of town I ride and run through on a regular basis.
    The podcast I mentioned at the end is American Talk USA. Visit Joe and give his show a listen.
    Enjoy!
