5th Time Round

Well, I am officially on to my 5th time preaching on these texts which we have - and I have come to an even greater appreciation of the 1 year series. We switched to the 1 year my first Advent here. I had admired the 1-year series simply from a pedagogical point of view - repetition is the mother of learning.

It is also the mother of learning for pastors as well. This benefits me as well, just as a person. I myself see the comfort of these texts, they are with me at all time. Now, the congregation benefits because what I know and see I preach - but when I think about it, the familiarity of these texts are a wonderful thing.
