Write your Easter Sunday sermon this week.

That’s it. You’re welcome. You can thank me later.

Here’s the deal. Whether you have two Holy Week services or twelve, it’s easy to be behind the eight ball on the Saturday evening before Easter. You are exhausted and, perhaps more importantly, your family is exhausted.

All nighters may have worked in college. Pushing the deadline can be an adrenaline rush. But the truth is, these tactics rarely produce our best work.

So find a chunk of time this week, get some good sleep, make (or buy) your favorite warm beverage, and write your Easter Sunday sermon this week.
