As I'm sure you know, it's always much better to have too much material than not enough. It's easier to have to leave something out because you're running out of time than it is to have to "pad" in order to fill up the time because you ran out of material.

What's really frustrating is knowing you have to leave something out, but what you've got is so good you hate to leave anything out.

We have a young man in our adult Sunday School class who has just started a 6-part series on Habakkuk. Today was his first day, and he did a really good job - except his voice was hoarse because (as he explained) he's
the coach of his son's 8-and-under soccer team, and yesterday was their first game (he said it was a lot like herding cats).
