Halloween Sermon

This past Sunday I preached a message that could be called a "Halloween" sermon. I thought maybe I'd post a link to it (audio with my slideshow) just in case anyone was interested. Feel free to critique (the sermon certainly has its weaknesses in that I'm not an expert on Catholic views of purgatory and I'm not a great preacher!), but it seemed to be used by the Lord based on comments I received afterward.

Anyways, it's about 35 minutes long and titled: Monstrosity: Frightful Forms of Faith

That M$FT video format won't work outside of windows, but I've stripped out the audio and will be listening.

Yes, I listened as well -- you may not realize it, but you do a good sermon.

Well thought-out, and well delivered. I thought I was listening to John Wesley!

Haha :) Well thanks ya'll for listening. Normally, I just preach/teach through the Bible at a smaller church on Sunday morning, in Sunday School, Sunday nights, and in small groups. But when our senior pastor is away I fill in and do more 'topical' stuff like this sermon.

Matt,

I listened to your sermon. Very well done (both content and delivery). :)

BTW...Your voice is much different than I would have imagined it.
