SERMONS FROM B. C. FILES

Do you remember BEFORE there were computers? We wrote things by hand or used a typewriter. After several pens and a couple of typewriters I entered the computer era. I began with a simple Timex computer. Then after a couple of Atari computers, I moved to the IBM compatible PCs. Over the past 15 years all of my work has been on the computer.

But I have a file drawer full of handwritten / typewritten outlines that I preached way back in B. C. (before computers). These outlines are being entered into the computer and posted on this page. As I have free time more of these outlines will be added. THE NEWEST ADDITIONS ARE IN THE 5TH COLUMN.

Please feel free to use these files, or change and edit them to suit your needs. If you have any problems or questions, contact me at:
