Today is the day that my father-in-law (Lon Mohundro) and I present three classes at the Harding Lectureship. We have shared ideas for several weeks and have put those ideas on PowerPoint and now is the time to actually present them. I'm surprising calm this morning. I'm not overly worried about the presentation. I think I'm more worried that I have enough material to last the complete period. Imagine a preacher worried that he has enough material?!
We had dinner last night with my son, Trey, his roommate, one of his friends, and Bobby Carr from Tabernacle. It was good to have dinner with them. I have especially enjoyed coffee with Trey at Midnight Oil. He is quite competent at creating the different coffee drinks there. I wouldn't mind being closer to Trey to spend a little more time with him. Of course that is something I long for with all of my kids.
Yesterday was good at the lectureships. Buddy Bell had a particularly good keynote lesson at 11:00 AM. He also did well at the chapel service for the students. His blend of humor and seriousness was well received by the audience.
Last night I heard Prentice Meador for the first time. He woke up yesterday with laryngitis yesterday. You could tell that he still had a touch of it as he spoke. His lesson was especially poignant as he told about his granddaughter's struggle with leukemia. Having three grandchildren, I can imagine the pain of finding out that one of your grandchildren has such a disease.
I'm looking forward to traveling tomorrow. We are going to visit the Hendersonville, NC area. I'm in conversation with the congregation there about the possibility of coming to work with them and we just want to see what the area is like. After our brief visit we will be traveling back home to Tabernacle.
And so that is all the blather for today.
