"Wisdom is the principal thing; Therefore get wisdom. And in all your getting, get understanding." --Proverbs 4:7.
Here are the links to the 176 messages. They were preached at Westminster Presbyterian Church in Kingsport, TN on most Sunday nights over a 5 year period and recorded on audio cassettes. In person, I heard 1 message per year during annual trips I was making to TN throughout that decade (a different story). Each one I heard was fabulous! What a treat when in 1998 I boldly asked to borrow them all and they agreed! I laboriously digitized them all with the intent to listen to all AND somehow eventually share with the world. (These were TOO good to keep hidden away in a little PCA church in Tennessee.) A L-O-N-G chain of trying circumstances has delayed both my listening to them and their public appearance 12 long years 'til now (2010).
Each message generally runs 45 minutes or less. A song and benediction at the end of most of them have been left in for optional edification.
Mar 2024 UPDATE: Up until now, less than half the collection has been online. NOW the entire collection is available! Also, they're in slightly better sound quality!
