The Christian Funeral

I attended McKendree Langley's memorial service Monday. My thought during the service was how refreshing to be at a Christian funeral/memorial service. It's not only that we can rejoice where the decease has gone, but that we can freely glorify God. How joyful to listen to Mick's son proclaim the gospel that his father believed in and even challenge us to know that gospel. How wonderful to sing "For All the Saints" and "Rock of Ages" and "Be Thou My Vision." What a joy to worship God!
