Disciples of Dayton

A few weeks back I returned to Dayton, Ohio to preach for the Northwest Church of Christ in their fall meeting. My friend and brother Dr. Cleavon Matthews is the very capable Minister there.

I love going to Dayton. The hospitality and appreciation is overwhelming. Golf with Cleavon and Bro. Pediford was wonderful and educational. I even got to sit down at Papadeux with John Edmerson. Or I should say, sat down with John at Papadeux’s. I really, really love that restaurant. J

Dinner by Christy Matthews was exceptional. One word says it all – Strawberry Butter. Hm hm good! Found out that when Christy writes letters for the church, she sometimes writes Church of Christy. Imagine that! Going to hell for a typo.

I commend the audience for their patience and support through a not so celebrated subject – Stewardship. That is a hard subject for many, but Dayton took it, nodded their heads and vowed to do better. Curtis Williamson did an excellent job on the singing. May God bless that church and inspire them to fulfill their vision.
