I Found this post the other day on Mike Slaughter’s blog. I really thought that it was awesome. Kind of thought provoking. I guess that is because in the past two weeks we have has 4 funerals. What are some of the ways you remember or find out about people after they have departed from this world? Now, go pull out those Bibles and mark ’em up
Yesterday
I went to the Memorial celebration for Karen Smith’s stepfather, John
Young. The pastor used John’s Bible for the readings. He noted how worn
it was and read from passages that John had marked. He pointed out
notes that had been written in the margins. “I always ask to see a
person’s Bible before I preach their funeral,” the pastor stated. “It
reveals everything about their life.”
