Well done, good and faithful servant – Planter, Pastor, Preacher

The Patina of Ordinary Faithfulness

When our last day comes, few of us will be remembered beyond it. The most beautiful Christian lives are seldom celebrated outside the local church. But when all earthly applause has faded, there will be no greater commendation than to know that our Lord’s work in and through us is complete and to hear, “Well done, good and faithful servant” (Matthew 25:23).
