Last week my Dad turned 70 years old, nearly 50 of those years have been spent in ministry! I can only hope that I have that kind of spiritual stamina and determination. Dad has served God faithfully in the face of adversity as well as joy. Dad didn’t make a short term commitment to Christ, in fact he used to joke that preachers don’t retire they just die and go to heaven. He may have said it as a joke but he really meant it, even his thoughts of “retirement” include ministry. Thanks dad, for the example and the incredible heritage.
