The kindness of the Lord: vacuum cleaners save the day (17)

Excerpt:
The day for the meeting arrived and we sat down for our talk in the pastor’s office. He was an imposing figure, both in stature and self-confidence. He quickly got to the point. He told me he (but by implication, also his wife and other church members) did not approve of my preaching. If you ask why, I would say because I preached Scripture and applied it to our consciences.

Having enumerated his objections to my preaching, he looked me dead on and asked, “How long do you think we’ll keep paying you if you keep preaching the way you are?” Keep in mind that he never attended worship.

He’d thrown down the gauntlet and I responded, “I don’t know, but you know what?”
