The fourth Friday of the month is one of my favorite days at the Union Mission. We have a guest speaker who drives all the way from Branson, Missouri to preach morning and evening chapel. He doesn’t lecture us. He never raises his voice. He simply delivers a Scripture-based life lesson we can apply immediately. Then, after 20-25 minutes, he closes his Bible and says, “That’s all I’ve got.”
That’s all I’ve got.
