I will center my preaching on 4 points that cohere with today's scriptures, but come from an unlikely source. But first, please humor me, let's blow on each others' hand again. I heard George Gallup speak this week. When Society has Failed. Mr. Gallup is a remarkable human being.
Survey research reveals that it is the intensity of a person's faith.
Yet there is not much public attention given to the inner life. Mr. Gallup says this is changing, and the inner life will be a major concern in the next century. He offered a four-part program for faithful life heading into the next century. We need to know what we believe and why. Most TA's won't criticize what you have written, and will give you a good grade.
