My parents saw my old friend Vinny yesterday. Incidentally, though not the meeting place, he was recently at the wedding of someone else we knew years ago. They told him a story about me, from when I was a young lad about my son’s age, that is now infamous in my family and the subject of various sermon illustrations. It seems it made a definite impression on the guy who told the story too, given I haven’t seen him since I was a young child yet he happily recounted it to an acquaintance. I will probably share it here one day.
By some coincidence, this video popped up in my Facebook feed yesterday too. Here is Vinny telling his story using his potter’s wheel. Most definitely worth a few minutes of your time.
