Beeline to the Cross

British pastor Charles Spurgeon (1834-1892) began preaching at age16. Despite battling depression and a painful birth defect, he becameknown as the prince of preachers. The prolific speaker and author leftbehind a 5,103-volume collection of work.

When asked about his preaching style, Spurgeon was simple and di-rect: I take my text and make a beeline for the cross. Spurgeontaught his students that from every text in Scripture there is a road to

the metropolis of the Scriptures, that is Christ.

Consider Spurgeons words whenever you read a Bible passage, andsee how you can make a beeline to the cross.

The Week at a GlanceOur job is to love others without stopping to inquire whether or not they are worthy. That is not our businessand, in fact, it is nobody's business. What we are asked to do is to love, and this love itself will render both

ourselves and our neighbors worthy. Thomas Merton

EUROPEAN PEOPLES.

Pray that the handful of

small, new churches across East

Germany will be a light that

breaks through the darkness of

secularism and hopelessness

with the truth of the Gospel. Al-

so, intercede for new believers in

former East Germany. Petition

that they will ind the courage

and the words to share the mes-sage of hope that has changed

their lives. And ask the Father to

provide spiritual protection for

workers in former East Germa-

ny, as they break new ground in

territories long under the con-

trol of the evil one.

The Undercover Man

While greeting people after the Easterservice, a pastor was surprised to see a

member who rarely attended worship. Heasked the man to wait for him until

everyone had left.1

When they were alone, the preacher saidto the man, John, Im so glad to see youtoday. Listen, I have a request to make ofyou. I want you, beginning today, to join

the army of the Lord.1

The man smiled and said, Pastor, Imalready in the army of the Lord.

1Now, John, protested the pastor, howcan you say that? I only see you at Easter

and Christmas.1

John leaned close to the pastor and

whispered, Im in the Secret Service.
