This entry is part 2 of 24 in the series Pastors: A Hope and a Future<\/a><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n

Here is a pastor who, after retirement, preached a sermon every year during his birthday week. Take 26 minutes today to listen to his sermon for his 100th birthday, which I posted on July 8, 2012. I want you to be inspired that this pastor was still preaching at 100 years of age and also to be inspired by the content of his sermon: a message of hope, perspective, and perseverance through difficult times using Isaiah 40:30-31 as his text. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Though youths grow weary and tired,<\/em>
And vigorous young men stumble badly,<\/em>
Yet those who wait for the Lord<\/em>
Will gain new strength;<\/em>
They will mount up with wings like eagles,<\/em>
They will run and not get tired,<\/em>
They will walk and not become weary.<\/em><\/p>Isaiah 40:30-31 (NIV)<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
