A life of glory
PASTOR’S CORNER, David Harris, Fellowship Baptist Church, Liberal
What does it look like to attain glory? When you think about that word, how do you dress it up? What comes to mind? If like me you grew up watching action movies, you might think of William Wallace swinging his massive sword to defend his freedom, or in a slightly more fictional vein, Rocky Balboa going up against Apollo Creed in the ring. If you love to watch sports you might associate glory with Michael Phelps, layers of Olympic gold hanging around his neck, or Michael Jordan holding the NBA championship trophy. If you value notoriety the peak of glory may be getting an obituary in the New York Times.
If civic service is your passion then perhaps the Presidential Medal of Freedom being given to a worthy person is what comes to mind.
