Last year we bought a Magnum Clock for HSM and was totally impressed by the equipment and the company – I asked Dale if we could do a giveaway on the blog and it was the most popular contest of the year! Shocking how many people wanted one of these bad boys – so bought one after the didn’t win, too!
Well, I’ve got another one to giveaway (the TT4040-C with countdown/up features even) and all you have to do is leave a comment with the average sermon length of your senior pastor to be entered to win (mine is 67 minutes if we’re lucky – just kidding, Pastor Rick!). Easy as that – I’ll pick one at random on Wednesday. You in? Enter now!

I’d estimate that Pastor Lynton speaks about 47 minutes on average, if you count introductory remarks and closing.
Our pastor usually goes about 35 minutes, but when he really gets into it….who really knows? My father was a pastor and his favorite joke was, “What does it mean when a pastor puts a watch or a clock on the pulpit? Absolutely nothing.”

Senior pastor, I’d say 45 minutes…love it when he tells us “Y’all just settle down for a minute, the Presbyterians and the Methodists are already out and grabbing all the tables at lunch so you might as well wait till they’re done, we’ll be through in a little while.”
