Rev Bill

I have posted today’s sermon on my sermon blog.

We are going through a series on Who Are We? as a Church — and today’s sermon is based on Luke 5:1-11 — and entitled Chosen To Be Obedient.

Here’s a portion of it it:

according to the story I heard on NPR — it (ice fishing in Minnesota) is no longer done sitting on an iced over lake with your pole and your line down a hole you have cut in the ice – shivering and catching your death of cold – if not catching fish. Just like fishing boats have gone high tech – so have what they call “fishing shacks” – small structures they put on the iced over lake to live in while ice fishing. Some are equipped with kitchens – beds – TVs with satellite dish – computer hook ups – generators to run all the electrical things – and of course heat. The “fishing shack” business is booming! I’m not sure all these things help you catch fish – but at least they help keep you comfortable while you are trying.

I might have to try ice fishing some day.

I do enjoy fishing – but you know – I’ve learned that “fishing for men” is much more fulfilling than fishing for fish!
