Angol
In 1995, my life hit a pothole. It was more than a pothole. My life ran into a ditch. I limped along for the next few years, doing what I could to work and trying to make the most out of a bad situation. In 1998, due to a series of events, I found myself in charge of a Christian chatroom. I presented a 30-minute sermon every night for 4 years. In 2002 I left the chatroom to "rekindle" a social life.
At one point I realized (with God's help) that those 30-minute sermons needed to be cut down to about 5 minutes. At first, I was unable to do this. It seemed nothing could fit into that small a time. Then several years later I joined a couple of Christian communities on a message board called Reddit. Many people would come there to ask questions about religion, and the church and would voice their troubles with life. I would often respond to these people with biblically based answers and comments.
It wasn't long before I realized that these small texts were the 5-minute sermons that God had told me about a decade ago. They would range from just a couple of sentences (1 minute) to about 10 minutes. Many people had the same questions about church and religion and the same worries about life. I started to save these responses and would use them for more than a single person.
I have compiled a collection of some of those old sermons, the small texts, and other sermons and studies and truths of life written over the last 20+ years and added them to this book. Some are old, some are long, some are old, some new, and everything in between.
I hope that you will enjoy them.
