Your ability to be straight forward, yet have a loving heart is an awesome quality that you have. I look forward to your Sunday sermons - with you, one never knows what they will get! ...a blessing for sure! :)<br /><br />Chris :)Chrishttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08798791594887945132noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19627868.post-9779786190413184052009-03-31T06:49:00.000-04:002009-03-31T06:49:00.000-04:00You Loud?

Yes, sometimes the message must be hard hitting but I think as long as it doesn't totally overshadow the love you have for the saint or the sinner, it is valid. Speak the truth in love whatever the truth is that we preach from God's Word. I think our hearers can tell if it is mean-spirited or from a heart of love.<BR/>Thanks for sharing.<BR/>Blessings,<BR/>MarkMark Hollingsworthhttp://www.preachology.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19627868.post-91741249955917083082009-03-30T10:16:00.000-04:002009-03-30T10:16:00.000-04:00Seems to me the hard hitting sermons with 'harsh words' are those that need to be heard the most. I can't imagine Jesus speaking in a low, controlled voice to all those he encountered. <BR/><BR/>Keep preaching the truth in love as you always do. God will be honored through it. <BR/><BR/>ReneeAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
