Just let me say that DG was awesome in chapel today. It reminded me of the “Kalas effect” chapels I used to go to. This is a term I invented for when Dr. Ellsworth Kalas would preach in chapel. He would point out something that needed to be changed in our lives (never in a condemning way) and that we needed to grow in Christ and move beyond it. People would leave these chapels in full agreement that “Yes, we need to stop doing “that” (whatever it was)”. But then, before the end of the day, people would settle back into their schedules and their rutts and forget all about what was said in chapel without even taking that first step towards change. This is the Kalas effect. Sad that such a phenomenon is attached to such a dear man, and that most people that he touched through his sermons never moved in the direction he was pointing.

But, back to DG. He did a great job and his message was very good one, as you’ll see when he posts it. He said butt and freakin’ (which drew gasps from one of the people I was watching chapel with). But his preaching seemed authentic. Not to put down other chapel speakers, but DG has a way of preaching as if he was conversing with you and not preaching at or lecturing you, which tends to happen in seminary chapels. So, in my humble, unbiased opinion, I think DG should be put on a normal rotation as an ATS chapel speaker. Let’s start him out at twice a week and see if we can increase it from there.

So, good job DG.
