Is your preaching an instrument of war?

Have you thought about the challenges of faithful preaching during wartime? No? Then perhaps you need to read one of Chris Erdman's latest posts:

It’s hard to keep the Word and its people free from entrapment to powers that aim to enlist God and everything else in service to their agendas. It’s hard but it is necessary. Preaching in time of war can have great power to help people keep their bearings amidst such things, but unfortunately it can also do very little—it can even become an instrument of war itself.

Too true. I'm glad to find this one.
