Even though the 2007 Freed-Hardeman University Lectureships took place several months ago, now is an excellent time to listen to one of the landmark lessons from this year's lineup.
The murder of Matthew Winkler is a news story familiar to us all. We share heartache for the Winkler girls left without a father, Dan and Diane left without a son, the Fourth Street church left without a minister, and Mary Winkler left without a husband by her own hands. As tragic as the situation is, we must be reminded of the hope God offers through His presence.
There may be no greater reminder of this than through the words of Dan Winkler himself. In one of his first--if not his first--public appearances since his son's death, Brother Winkler closed the PM lecture series with the lesson entitled, "Preserving a Godly Trust (Deut. 6:1-6)." Brother Winkler clearly addresses his personal feelings of helplessness without drawing undue attention to the tragedy. He relays God's words of comfort with clarity. The audio and video for the lesson can be downloaded at the FHU Lectures Online. A high-quality CD may be purchased from FHU Recording Services.
May God bless the Winkler family and everyone else affected. Our prayers are continually with them.
