Preaching at the Nursing Home

On Sunday, I preached a sermon at The Manor at Penn Village nursing home in Selinsgrove! Let me give the back story first.

A year or two ago, I befriended Jesse Bingaman. You might know him as the paint manager at Mifflinburg Cole’s Hardware. He’s also a local pastor and author of the book: Embrace the Pain: A Biblical Approach to Living in a World of Anxiety and Depression. (It’s a very good good book and I highly recommend it!) He saw me street evangelizing and we started talking and occasionally getting breakfast together.

Once a month, he preaches as the nursing home and couldn’t make it this month, so he asked if I would be willing to be his replacement. Of course I said yes 🙂

It was a lovely experience. The folks at Penn Village are beautiful people. I brought my banjo and sang songs and hearing them sing along was just wonderful.

I praise God for my friend Jesse, the people I met on Sunday, and the opportunities God has given me to serve him and his people.

If you want to see what I preached on, I have it here.
