Making a Difference?


What would you say if you had a month to live and were offered an opportunity to tell people some of the most important things you have learned? There is a tradition at some universities called, "The Last Lecture" that is based on that premise.

Professors and administrators who are retiring or leaving for other reasons are asked to deliver their "Last will and testament" to their students, faculty friends or a general audience. It is a big moment that requires some careful thought. As a Believer, I would want to say things that left a positive and uplifting spiritual message but that is tricky business.

One man was able to do this quite well. In my opinion he was sensitive to all of his audiences. Watch the video and see what you think.
