Safety or Vulnerability?
Sunday, January 16th, 2011
Several years ago a man who lived nearby lost his son in a tragic car crash. Although he wasn’t a Christian he approached me, as the local minister, to take his son’s funeral.
In the process of helping plan the funeral and caring for him and his wife, the two of us became friends. Each time we met he would ask about my faith, until one day he called to ask if I would meet with him and several of his friends.
“I want you to tell them about God!” he said. “I have tried to tell them what you have been telling me and now they all want to meet you!” I had just agreed to meet them all for a beer and a chat at the local rowing club when my friend said,
“It’s going to be a great night. There’s even going to be strippers!”
