Soon after [Stephen Cook] came to Second Baptist Church, I felt a stirring in my pen. I have never wanted to outline or summarize the pastor’s sermons, but many times something he said started my pen to writing. Later, after some reflection and thought, sometimes weeks or even months later, the scribbling was sorted out and organized and became what I call Reflections. Sometimes Stephen will say, You said in nine lines what it took me 22 minutes to say. This little book contains Reflections from the first five years of Stephen Cook’s ministry at Second Baptist Church, Memphis, Tennessee.
