Stephen F. Olford

I just couldn't go any further.

And Dr. Stephen Olford came to see me, and by his good grace and God's love and tenderness and care for me, set me aside for three months.

And for thr-- You think, "Well, I'd love three months break." Let me tell you what happened.

I went to a little island for five weeks that there was no cars, no telephones, nothing, and everybody would say, "Well, boy, I'd love to be in a place like that." Not if you've been going 95 miles an hour and comes to a dead halt.

Wow.

As one of the sources quotes the great preacher, Dr. Stephen Olford, It's a strong image.

When a speck of dust hits your eye, you don't ignore it.

Your entire body reacts instantly to flush it out.

You see, there are so many areas of our personal life that cause stress, and maybe none as much as financial worry.

Stephen Olford says this, I'm convinced that the devil has caused the subject of giving to stir up resistance and resentment among God's people because he knows there are few ways of spiritual enrichment like the exercise of faithful stewardship.

So after all these years of pastoring, I wish across our congregation that I could just wave a wand over those who are skeptical and change your heart.

But I can't.
