If you live a just life and witness to the lost about Christ what else is there to learn? Do churches eventually move on to such issues as personal empowerment and the social gospel of helping the poor or go off on a tangent preaching about the prophetic doomsday apocalypse to come?

What was last sunday's sermon about in your church and how were you personally edified by it? still waiting for the "latter rain"


Sunday morning our guest speaker preached about the battle that is still very much raging in the spirit, that we can't see with our eyes but we must be aware of. How we can't sit back but we must engage the enemey of our souls lest we be caught sitting down in the heat of the battle.

To be honest, I was really preoccupied with my newborn who decided it was time to eat and fuss... so I didn't get out of it what I wanted to. Sun PM my infant AND my toddler kept me distracted.
I find that happens to me a lot now in service, but that's no reflection on the preacher or the message being preached.

What do you mean exactly by "still waiting for the latter rain"?
