Thanks for the compliments, but I can't take credit for all of it.  In fact
the two essays that you commented on were both written by Matthew Shaw, my
good friend.  Out of the 11 essays we started with, Bro. Shaw wrote 7 and I
wrote 4 (mine are generally a little longer than his).  I'll forward you
comments to him and perhaps he will reply to them.  We hope to continually
add new essays.  Again, thanks for the compliments.

Thanks also for the locations of the other "sermon-type," Pentecostal
sites.  I have already been to Bro. Brown's and have read and enjoyed many
of his writings.

Yours in Christ Jesus our King and God,
Bro. Kirk
