The Definition of Missions
I recently was asked the definition of missions. Here is my attempt to sum up it's essence into an apt statement.
Missions is the duty of the church, in which we as the redeemed in gratitude and love get the privileged to announce the riches of our redemption to those who are lost as we once were. That the Holy Spirit chooses to work in, arresting the heart of men and granting them the gift of repentance unto life.

Moreover, I believe in God.
The Value of Clarity in Preaching
An idea that is hopefully accurate to the text, fairly succinct, somewhat memorable, or perhaps just plain clear. These are the sermons that gradually transform lives.
Often times during revivals, bible conferences, camp meetings, and the like we are exposed to preaching that is of the highest of caliber. Just today I had the privilege of hearing 6 messages that were exceptional. While these messages were amazing, as I read Peter's words tonight on preaching I am reminded of the immense value of "just plain clear" preaching.
"Campmeeting Preaching" may stir our souls. It may lead us to deeper understanding of God's word. It is plain preaching that provides the foundation. Preaching the meat and potatoes of the word of God is fundamental and needed. Peter's admonition to preach accurate and simple is one we preachers should heed.
