Of First Importance

I will be preaching again, for the last time, at Center Presbyterian Church this Sunday.  My text will be 1 Corinthians 15:1-4, asking one basic question: "Why is Paul reminding Christians of the gospel?  Don't they already know it?"  The title of the sermon will be, "Of First Importance: Remembering the Most Important Thing."

Whenever I have the opportunity to preach on Sunday morning, I am keenly aware of my shortcomings, but never more so when I am preaching directly on the gospel.  Please pray for me, that the beauty and glory and truth of the message of salvation would be put clearly on display by the frail words I bring to the congregation this Sunday.
