This Sunday, our worship teams will call our congregation to worship with one of the oldest hymns in the hymnbook.  And it isn't really even a hymn.  It's a doxology.  The word comes from the Greek "doxa", meaning glory, and "logia", to say.  So, literally, a doxology is an expression of praise.  And, historically, it has been employed as a "tag" to hymns.  The "hallelujah" at the end of many of the Psalms could be considered doxologies.

Autumn shows its colors late here in East Texas. We’re on the threshold of November but trees are just beginning to turn. I was driving through the Smokey Mountains in early September and the leaves were already starting to change. Have you ever wondered what causes the reds and golds to appear?

My father, a longtime pastor in Houston, was the greatest memorizer of scripture that I have ever known. He had committed the majority of the Bible to memory and would preach sermons, packed with verses, and never use notes. His nickname was “The Walking Bible.” One day, when I was a know-it-all teenager, I asked my dad what his secret was. I asked him what the “trick” was to memorizing scripture. He smiled and replied, “just spend time in The Word.”
