Matthew W. Kingsbury has been a minister of Word and sacrament in the Orthodox Presbyterian Church since 1999. At present, he teaches 5th-grade English Language Arts at a charter school in Cincinnati, Ohio. He longs for the recovery of confessional and liturgical presbyterianism, the reunification of the Protestant Church, the restoration of the American Republic, and the salvation of the English language from the barbarian hordes.

A text without a context
For Pentecost this last Lord's Day, I preached from John 15 and 16, in the course of which it occurred to me that many Christians might like to hear their long-winded pastors echo Jesus' words in John 16:12: "I still have many things to say to you, but you cannot bear them now."
