Most of us have been fortunate enough to have been brought up in a family with caring parents and siblings. When one member of the family is in need the others gather around to help out. This is my experience at the moment as I am convalescing after major surgery. I am so grateful to God for giving me back the family I nearly lost through my own foolishness. Never undervalue your family. If there are disagreements do your best to overcome them, you never know when you will need your family. There will come a time when you can return the compliment when another member of the family is in need. This also applies to the family that is the church. In the church there may well be people who do not have a genetic family. They need our help even more. Families should stick together and help one another.
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.
