I think that one of the greatest sermons ever preached was when Dr. Hill preached at his wife's funeral. I think it was broadcast by "Focus on the Family" several years back. He was not a great black preacher. He was a great preacher.

Amen to that. I still get chills hearing the end of the sermon with Dr. Hill shouting "Trust Me! Trust Me! I'm not Finished Yet! You've got to Trust Me!" through his tears.

I heard that message - his wife's funeral. I'm a pastor - and I've always looked up to him at that moment as an example of strength, humility, and a fervent love for Jesus. Speaking at the funeral of a spouse has to be one of the toughest things to do in life.
Can't wait to see him someday and talk about it.
