I just had to pass on a great sermon from church yesterday called “Watch Your Diet,” part of our current “Go for the Gold” message series. It's about making every effort to maximize our walks with God to experience a profitable Christian life. As part of the series, we’ve addressed passages where the Christian life is compared to a race (and, of course, played off of the Olympics - how about TEAM USA?!?!).
This week, the guest speaker was Mike Kelsey, pastor of Frontline Silver Spring. He talked about the importance of delighting – feasting – on God’s Word rather than simply consuming it out of duty. He gave four practical tips for delighting in the Word. The message related to some thoughts that I have been sharing about the Word over the last couple years and, most recently, in my "Eat This Book" entry. Plus, Pastor Kelsey is a great Bible teacher (I actually attended undergrad with him, and he led a Bible study that was good even then!). It’s a timely message for getting us to consume more spiritual milk – and grow! Here it is: "Watch Your Diet" (And on iTunes: Podcasts > The Bridge DC > Being Victorious in Your Walk...August 12). Num Num!
