It would de so nice for this blog to be two-way. I would love your opinions even if you don't agree with me. My biggest group of readers is from U.S.A. then comes U.K. where I live. After that there is a sprinkling of Europeans, Russians, India, Singapore, Peru and Australia. How amazing to have an audience like that. The nearest I came to this as a child was to have a penpal in Sweden. We never imagined we would be able to reach out across the world. Now I am almost a missionary, without having to leave my living room. Do you think this is amazing ? Would you like to tell me so ? I would love to hear from you.
First of all thanks to Fat Prophet for your interest. I see from your blog you are having trouble commenting. To get back to my assessed service. Criticism albeit constructive is harder for some to take than others. I felt a little crushed after my assessed service but then remembered I had recorded it on my dictaphone. I listened to it all through and although my assessors were quite right about me speaking a little quickly and rushing from item to item, I was actually very pleased with the content of my sermon and how I presented it. So I have decided to take heart. I highly recommend other trainees to record your services. You can hear your good points and your bad and there is no argument about it, it is all caught on the recorder.
I am one of your American readers and I subscribed to your RSS feed so I won't miss a post. Rest assured that even if I don't comment on every post I am still reading.
ReplyDeleteWhat you're doing online is helping people all over the world who have not experienced God's presence in their lives. At a time when you could just retire and enjoy a restful life in your village you have chosen instead to share the love of Jesus. I admire you so much for answering the call.
Tyla, thank you so much for encouragaing me by commenting. It makes me happy to know people are reading and getting help and comfort from my blog.
