The Preacher's Sermon One Sunday morning, a young, newly-graduated pastor preached his first sermon at the local church, and he felt the message was particularly powerful and compelling. Putting his whole heart into the delivery, he expounded upon the theological viewpoint that was the basis of his message. After the sermon, the young preacher stood at the door, shaking people's hands as they left. As he shook the hand of elderly Mrs. Smith, who'd been waiting for some time to hear his first sermon, he asked her how she enjoyed the message. She replied, ""Your sermon was like the peace of God... It passeth all understanding.""
