about, people don't decide to go to church Sunday morning, but on Saturday. He was saying, if you don't schedule something, something else will horn in on the time. Here's the interesting part: we all know that the devil wants to keep us from doing Godly things. But we generally assume, the devil wants us, instead of going to church, to do things like smoke weed, read dirty ditties on the social media, or Dawkins' latest rant. But the devil is way smarter than that; he knows, that even plenty of rank unbelievers can't stand the smell of pot, nor have any interest, whatsoever, in grungy posts. Nope, the devil can, and does, keep people from the Lord's will, through getting people involved in wholesome things - like getting stuff ready for a family outing, slotting sunday morning to visit aunt becky over at the nursing home. (Uhm, she's there on saturdays.)
Pastor's busy. He went on to say, concerning a family thing, that "free" Tuesdays, somehow end up captive by something. So, what he did? He scheduled a certain Tuesday afternoon.
And by the way, but not really btw, people generally assume that for-real preachers are all geared up for Sunday morning - that they never, ever, entertain the notion of calling off and taking a pretend sick-day, or even scheduling ahead of time, yet another vaca day.
Had to google these;/
"Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the manner of some is; but exhorting one another : and so much the more, as ye see the day approaching. " Hebrews 10:25
"Elias was a man subject to like passions as we are, and he prayed earnestly that it might not rain : and it rained not on the earth by the space of three years and six months." James 5:17
