GREAT MEN: Who Do You Admire?

"Once upon a time there was a forum that sometimes gets a little carried away with questions, opinions and unfounded speculation about various ministries..."

Let's face it, there have been times when things have gotten carried away here towards the ministry. Thankfully, we've gotten much better in that area. I suspect a huge 'thank you' is in order to the Admins and posters for maintaining a higher level of dignity of late.

However, something came to me tonight as I preached for Bro. Ewing in Lake Charles: We DO have some men among us that are priceless and worthy of 'double honor'. Outside of my own Pastor there is no man more revered in my eyes than Bro. Murrell Ewing has become.

I now seem to preach for him on a fairly regular basis and cherish the touch of this great Bishop on my life. For a man like myself who has pretty much been a 'loner' most of my ministry it's refreshing to have someone in my life that I trust and respect like I do Bro. Ewing.

Instead of questioning the motives or critiqueing the styles of ministers let's turn this positive by taking the time to find someone who we think is worthy of honor.

QUESTION: Who is that ONE Minister (outside of your own Pastor) that you have great admiration for? And, in a few words, explain what there is about them that makes you honor them.

I wonder if we'll be able to see a lot about the individuals posting by getting a glimpse of who they admire in the Ministry... and why they admire them?
