Legacy

I recently had the opportunity to run the audio/video for a funeral at Harvard Avenue Baptist Church, the church I’m a member of in Siloam Springs. This funeral was different than most that I’ve been to. Though there was definitely mourning, there was an overwhelming peace that pervaded the service and several of the family members. Everyone that I heard talking about the man who had passed away had something positive to say about him. I had only met the man once or twice, but it was great to hear all that everyone had to say about him whether it was sharing Christ with them, giving them a hug no matter who they were, or using his job and life as a constant ministry. As I sat back in the soundbooth, I began thinking to myself “How will I be remembered: as someone who lived for himself or for others; for his own glory or for the glory of God?”
