I assumed that the guest pastor would remember to switch his mute button on his microphone, so I left it muted.  I then told the sound tech that he would have to mute the pastor on the board when he wasn&#8217;t speaking.  Unfortunately for me, I assumed wrong about the pastor remembering to switch his mute button.<\/p>\n<p>We had no volume on the pastor through the prayers, confession, and words of insititution.  Thankfully we have a small sanctuary so that it wasn&#8217;t a huge disaster.  And thankfully he told me afterword that he appreciated me catching him during the offering and letting him know his mic wasn&#8217;t on.<\/p>\n<p>But&#8230;getting to the point.  During the sermon, Pastor Helling spoke of all of the things we try to satisfy ourselves with.  Only one thing can satisfy:  Jesus, the Bread of Life.  I hope I can remember those words throughout the coming days.<\/p>\n<div id=\"wp_fb_like_button\" style=\"margin:5px 5px 5px 0;float:left;height:50px;\"><script src=\"http:\/\/connect.facebook.net\/en_US\/all.js#xfbml=1\"><\/script><fb:like href=\"https:\/\/iamanoffering.com\/blog\/nothing-satisfies\/\" send=\"false\" layout=\"standard\" width=\"595\" show_faces=\"false\" font=\"arial\" action=\"like\" colorscheme=\"light\"><\/fb:like><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Yesterday&#8217;s service had one point that really hit me&#8230;but I&#8217;ll get to that later.
