Dad the Mentor

In all the excitement about Fathers Day, I started thinking of the many things Dad taught me about the ministry. He was a mentor before mentoring was cool. He taught me how to:

Administer the Lord's Supper
Baptize
Lead a Deacons Meeting
Do a funeral
Perform a wedding
Preach short sermons
Use stories in sermons
Greet people before and after church
Telephone prospects
Use the Roman Road in soulwinning
Lead a holy life
How to treat my wife.

You get the point. This list could go on for a while. Thanks, Dad. Happy Fathers Day.
