The Almost Christian. This is one of John Wesley’s sermons, and I like to go back to his sermons every once in a while because there is such a fount of incredible wisdom found there. But they come with their challenges. Take for instance, how he starts this out.
In this post you are going to get some nerdiness from me. (I know, shocking right?) Every year on Father’s Day I try to do something that is related, and it can be fun to see what I can come up with.

This message was originally given on Memorial Day weekend. Since it was preached, I've been to Annual Conference and all that comes with working things out in the larger church right now.

Who wants to go back to being 12 years old? Anyone? Sometimes it can be a fun thought, but it’s not really a good solution for anything. And really, I’m not sure that I’d want to go back through middle school again.
