Farewell Rev. D. James Kennedy
Sep 8th 2007adam murrellGeneral
It is always poignant when a Christian goes home to be with the Lord. While we should rejoice in the Christian’s new home, we mourn for our own loss. We are saddened by what shall never return to us in this life. Sometimes we mourn from a sense of guilt for not truly appreciating what we had. It is oftentimes difficult to appreciate what was in our midst until it is no longer there. We have a tendency to take for granted the great Christians the Lord has put in our midst. For many, this may be the case with the late D. James Kennedy. On September 5, 2007 the Christian community mourned the loss of this titan of the faith. The Rev. D. James Kennedy, passed away after complications stemming from a heart attacked suffered last December. His life and ministry should make every Christian take pause and thank the Lord that we had the opportunity to live during the ministry of a great theologian. It should also sadden us to the reality that one more giant is no longer here on earth to witness to the world. It should be our mission to cry out to God and ask that he raise up many more Godly men like D. James Kennedy for the glory of God…
