Just in case you've missed a recent blog post, for the past few weeks, I have borrowed an idea from Mary Poppins and shared “a few of my favorite things”. I'm referring to some of my favorite posts from my Billy Burns Ministries Facebook page. Three weeks ago, I shared a few of the Holy Spirit Realities that appear each Tuesday.

The "wow factor" preachers have people digging out their Bible dictionaries as they are preaching to further research the Greek and Hebrew words used in the sermon, oohing and aahing at every other sentence, and taking voluminous (pardon my feeble attempt to impress you with my vocabulary) pages of notes.
