Troy Skinner had recently seen a stage play, a musical, that very accurately captures much that is true about life in the world. As the lyrics to "Seasons of Love" tell us, there is both laughter and strife. And our lives can pass us by quickly with meaninglessness, if we're not careful. But "Rent" blends these helpful insights with a troubling outlook on the human condition. For example, these words from the song "No Day But Today":

.

"The heart may freeze or it can burn. The pain will ease if I can learn there is no future, there is no past. There's only us, there's only this. No other road, no other way, no day but today. There's only yes, only tonight. We must let go to know what is right. No other course, no other way. I trust my soul. My only hope is just to be. There's only now, there's only here. No other path, no other way, no day but today."

.

Believe it or not, these songs provide the perfect teaser for a Sunday sermon that recaps a previous sermon preached on 2 John 1-11, and then embraces the wonderful theme of community in fellowship that is found in 2 John 12-13.

.

There is no panel, as this episode features the second half of a sermon message that Troy Skinner had the opportunity to share with a local congregation as guest preacher.
