I'm honored, humbled and excited about Sunday, December 27, 2009. It will be my preaching debut at First Baptist Church. Since joining the staff full-time, I have had the great opportunity to speak at our church's family camp and to different organizations in town, but this is different. For weeks, my mentor (and Senior Pastor) has been looking for a date to have me "take a swing from the pulpit." With great anticipation, I look forward to the opportunity.
