A Ministry of Encouragement

“My ministry is with older people in nursing homes,” she said. “I try to encourage those who are confused. I befriend them, mostly to show Christ’s love.”

Well, hearing that meant a lot to me. You see, my mother spent her last years in a nursing home. She had Alzheimer’s. I visited her several times a week, so I could really picture what this woman’s ministry was like.

Well, this woman had thanked me for my ministry. I was speaking at the annual convention for her denomination. But I also want to say thanks to all of you who have ministries of comfort and encouragement. I know firsthand how needed you are. In Jesus’ name I bless you for the marvelous way you minister on our Lord’s behalf.

 


I am grateful that I continue to hear how positively readers are responding to my latest book entitled The Sermon Sucking Black Hole—Why You Can’t Remember on Monday What Your Minister Preached on Sunday. This book is available at Amazon.com by clicking here.

In this book, I offer some solid tips to the people sitting in the congregation to help them remember what their pastor has said from the pulpit.
