“First-Hour People in an Eleventh-Hour World”
If you’re listening to this sermon right now, there’s a pretty good chance that you’re a “first-hour” kind of person. If you’re willing to log on to the twenty-eighth week of online church or to sit on a folding chair outside, you’re probably a pretty committed person in general. Some of you have kept the church functioning during a long, hard interim period. Some of you have been the linchpin of the office, coordinating everything while people are working from home...Even if you’re not quite so diligent as these early birds—maybe you’re a third- or a sixth-hour person—I’m guessing that you’ve all had experiences of those eleventh-hour workers.
