Salted Decision
Listen up people.
Most of this sermon
You don’t want to hear.
Quite unsolicited
By the elders
I am going to remove
About forty percent
Of our programs
From schedule.
They are tinsel
And pointless fluff.
Fun perhaps, or hobby oriented.
But they do not give honour
To Jesus and the
Gospel accounts
Or Acts of Apostles.
We end now the pot luck suppers
Yoga, book club, bingo
Penny carnivals outside.
Intended to warm up
The neighbours to us.
We don’t share with them
Issues of repentence
Unto life or simple holy living.
The Holy Spirit must
Be recognized.
All of these problems will
Be cleared up gradually
As we introduce programs
That must be run
By lay people, you people.
I become the coach
Advising from the sidelines.
You become the players
Out on the field.
Taking the knocks
Scoring some points.
Seeng some eager ones
Entering the faith Family.
The faith once delivered
To the saints.
Giving God all the Glory.
