Preach the Word with Passion

Last Sunday I had the opportunity to worship at the Brooklyn Tabernacle in Brooklyn, New York.  This is the church that is known for its choir, the famous Brooklyn Tabernacle Choir.  But the church has more than a good choir.  It is filled with authentic Christians who love the Lord.  It has a Man of God for a pastor. It is a place of prayer and a place of miracles.

Jim Cymbala, the pastor, has a new book entitled, "STORM, Hearing Jesus For The Times We Live In." In it he wrote, "If pastors preach with the passion that comes from being with Christ, won't the audience fall more in love with the Lord?"  My friend Bill Welte, CEO of America's Keswick, gave me a copy of the book.  It is a good read and it gives examples of the kind of courage and passion pastors need today.

Preach the Word!
