Better than a thousand hollow words
Is one word that brings peace.
Better than a thousand hollow verses
Is one verse that brings peace.
Better than a hundred hollow lines
Is one line of the law, bringing peace.

I love good preaching. Recently I heard a sermon that was beautiful in it’s simplicity in explaining what for many can be a difficult truth to grasp. The preacher was Rev. Dr. John Philip Newell, Guest Minister at First Plymouth Church in Lincoln, NE. I invite you to click on the link and enjoy Dr. Newell’s sermon.
