Summary: Today's Lectionary text actually was longer, but I confined the sermon to understanding the young man's approach to Jesus in a bit less revivalistic terms and in getting to the central challenge Jesus presented to him. If you don't know, I am the supply preacher for a small Presbyterian Church in our community. It's my opportunity to preach to someone other than teenagers :-) This is my third straight hour of preaching/teaching this morning, so yeah, I was that tired.
