First Sermon

I preached my first sermon today. It was on the topic of faith which is something that I am very passionate about which helps. Whenever I try and give a speach about something I don't care about, it never comes out well but when I really care, it turns out really well. Overall it wasn't a whole lot different than teaching in front of a classroom except there is less audience participation. I got a decent amount though. Asked lots of questions and got people talking. No one was nodding off which was also good.

The funny thing is that I don't think I was actually scheduled to preach this week but next week instead. I had also signed up to be an alternate if someone backed out. I was preparing for this weekend when I got a call yesterday asking if I could preach because the person who was going to preach had left the country. I was a little confused because I thought I was already supposed to be. The upside is that I was ready. The downside is that I get to preach again next week. I think I'll do love...
