Last night at The Meeting
By Jeremy | November 12, 2005
Tony Evans preached Acts 13:36:
“For when David had served God’s purpose in his own generation, he fell asleep; he was buried with his fathers and his body decayed.”
He emphasized three aspects:
1. “David served God’s purpose” — His was not a plotless life. (Why was Seinfeld so successful? People with plotless lives like plotless television.)
2. “In His generation” — David translated timeless truths within the time and place in which he found himself.
3. “He fell asleep” — A day without purpose is a day wasted. Our days are numbered, so live each one as “preparation for the postseason.”
There’s so much to add, but that’s about all I have time for right now.
Tonight at The Meeting: The Storytellas, presenting a special showing of The Man; the Youth Explosion choir; and Nicky Cruz.
