Differentiated Listeners

I was just thinking--the only sermon I remember from my summers going to church camp is Ralph Wheeler's "I Can't Come Down".  In fact, it's one of only a handful of sermons I can remember when I look back on my life, even though I've heard hundreds--maybe thousands!  I've learned more about God through music, and liturgy, and books, and daily interactions with people than I have from sermons, honestly.  Not everybody is like me, but plenty are.  The reason I'm mentioning it is because I hope those of you who preach (and teach) regularly remember those of us who have different learning styles.  If you get stuck trying to think of creative ways you could otherwise communicate messages from Scripture, then honey--you best make some friends who can help you out.  Just don't give up.  The next generation is pretty good-natured, but they're not going to stick around just to hear another three point monologue.  The church is changing and we've got to get out on that dance floor and get our jazz hands on!
