AMAZING

Pardon me for a little grousing, but I am tired of the word AMAZING. Seems like everything is amazing these days. Teenagers use the word endlessly, but as I was thinking about this on the way home, Sean Hannity was going on about the amazing inaccuracies at the DNC in Denver. I heard three testimonies at church not long ago and in those three heard the word amazing at least a dozen times. When everything is amazing, nothing is amazing.

Off my soapbox!

How do you feel about "awesome"?

What about the sermon I heard last Sunday evening? Hate to pick on the preacher, but everything in Ephesians was "huge", "awesome", and we were often referred to as "you guys"! Guess I'm really old fashioned, but the English language has really deteriorated!
