As many of you know, I typically take a preaching break during the summer. People always ask me “how was your vacation?” It’s NOT vacation . Anyway, here’s a video that explains the logic of taking a preaching break. It’s something that has worked well here at Harvest, and I commend it to you.

   Good word – right on! I like what Leith Anderson and others do every summer. Take a month off for rest, renewal, reading, writing, and work on preaching calendar. There is a lot of wisdom in that.

   You deserve a break from the pulpit! Are you wearing a Believe wristband?
