Old One Hundreth

I'm throwing out a little challenge here. We'll see if anyone actually reads this blog and is willing to invest some time in God's Word.

This coming Sunday (Nov. 22) I'm planning to preach from Psalm 100. A Psalm of Thanksgiving.

Here's the challenge: Memorize Psalm 100 (in your favorite translation).

Here's the incentive (besides the great and priceless reward of taking in the Word of God and letting it permeate your being, hearing from the Lord and learning from Him, and delighting in the Lord God who is good and loving and faithful, etc., etc.): the first person to quote this Psalm on Sunday morning will receive a copy of "The Treasury of David," Vol. II, Psalms 58-110, by Charles H. Spurgeon. It's a tremendous treasure of insights into the Psalms and a powerful expression of adoration for the Savior. Oh yeah, you've also got to be willing to recite it before the congregation.

I'll give away other books to anyone else who comes with this Psalm memorized on Sunday, even if you're not the first.

Anyone up for this? See you Sunday.
