My nephew, Matt, received his Doctorate in Ministry Degree from Westminster Theological Seminary on May 24. Kat, Daniel, Abby and I drove to Souderton, PA, to attend the ceremonies. R.C. Sproul gave the graduation address. He was incredible. Wish I had taken my tape recorder so I could have a copy of the text of his message. Basically told the graduates to preach the gospel as we have it presented to us in the Bible. We can't tell the creator and author of salvation how to improve on His plan for salvation. Great message. Both Sproul and James I Packard received honorary degrees. Rev. Packard's presentation was done on video from England. Matt's parents, my brother and sister-in-law were there as well. It was good to have a family get-together for such a happy occasion. After the ceremony we went to the hotel where they were all staying and enjoyed an evening meal together before we drove home. Long, happy day.
