You mean you wouldn't use "this time" to let others know that "not just any old junker is going to come puking and vomiting through the gates..." ?
If not now, when? If not you, who?
Or could it be, the legacy of great men is that they knew there is a greater God? I remember Murrell Ewing that way. He had a way of making himself smaller, and his God greater and greater.

I know you did not mean this to be funny but it is. I don't think anybody else has ever thought of ME in the context of "making himself smaller" LOL!!!
One of my first memories of seeing ME up close was at the JCM Gen Conf Banquet around 1977 or 78. It was buffet style and he passed by me with a plate piled higher than I thought possible without it all falling off. It was honestly piled at least six or eight inches high. I remember being amazed. That is why I got a kick out of Jack Cunningham talking about them checking out all of the restaurants together and the buffet story.

I don't think it was meant as any disrespect at all. Just that this is the succession plan in place.

Gotcha...

I can't hear him at all. He talks too softly.

I loved the video presentation! He and Joan both look much older than I remember - I haven't seen them in 20 years!! And of course I cried when he sang "Beyond the Sounds of Battle".

While I was typing that, the thought of what TB said about how many people had pushed his sleigh and the audience's laughter did cross my mind.
I'm trying to remember the sermons and things I remember ME said that I heard personally. The one thing that stands out is him saying - in that soft and rumbling voice that sounded like Burl Ives - how much greater God is than any of us and greater than any problems we might face.

Very touching song.
Did you see Tommy Craft? He is beginning to show his age but not as much as I would have expected.
