Two Firsts

1. I preached my first sermon Thursday, April 28, 2005. It's called Overcoming Temptation and you can read it here. The presentation of the ten minute sermon was made in front of about thirty youth during our Chi-Rho youth ministry and overall, I believe it went well. Normally the kids sit and talk amongst themselves but they kept relatively quiet as if they were genuinely interested in what I had to say. I guess it helps that I was using Star Wars - Episode VI: The Return of The Jedi as a visual aid.

2. Sunday, May 1, 2005, Patrick Hamilton allowed me to play entre acte and incidental piano music during the quarterly F.A.I.T.H. Banquet held at Calvary Baptist Church. Several people walked up to me afterward exclaiming they had no idea I could play, let alone write my own music and perform it.
