Last week when we got down to -20 degrees I threw my heaviest coat and sleeping bag in the back of the car just in case it got really cold. Today the pastor referred to our current heat wave of 20 degrees above. His sermon was both good and timely. However during the wrap up when the congregation usually sings a couple of songs before leaving the video went out. That meant no words projected up on the back wall of the church. The praise team in front went ahead singing but I looked around and there was absolutely no one in the pews singing. Not too surprising - who knows the words to these new '7-11 songs? If only they had switched extemporaneously to singing some of the old hymns - most people would know at least the first stanza of those, both words and melody. Big added plus to Nancy and I is we would still be singing them as we walked out the church doors.
