Emphasis Preaching Journal

Cal attended church every Sunday, taught the high school Sunday school class, and sat on the church board. He had a deep faith. But there is one thing for which Cal is deeply sorry. Cal's friend, Barry, had been raised by strict parents. He was taught that one should never drink alcohol. Cal, whose parents served wine with meals, and didn't frown on the occasional beer, believed that drinking was okay if done in moderation. Cal and Barry worked construction together. It was hot work and often after work, Cal would stop for a beer on the way home.
