On the last Sunday of October 2022, Michael Grant preached his last sermon for Midleton Baptist Church on the south coast of Ireland.
He preached on Jesus’ words about the last days, and on the importance of putting our trust in the Lord. Towards the end of the sermon he shared a quote encouraging the congregation to live life ‘as if Christ died yesterday, rose again today, and is coming again tomorrow.’
These were not simply words for Michael Grant. The message he preached that day was a description of the way he lived his own life, until his death on 31 December 2022 at the age of 81.
