Frankly, this was one of our poorest weekends in quite a while. I was uncomfortable with my message from the get-go. As a result, I rambled and tried to save a talk that was doomed from the beginning. I shortened it, tweaked it and made it MUCH better for Sunday. Our sound system was experiencing 'technical difficulties' which made a struggling student band struggle even more! I have a good friend visiting from out of town who is also a Junior High Pastor. He reminded me of a very important truth in ministry. If kids connected with a caring adult, took a little step closer to Christ and had fun, then the other stuff really doesn't matter. There was a lot that went wrong this weekend, but I think the important stuff went right.
