What notes do you preach from?

It's a question young, aspiring preachers often ask of those who have been preaching for longer. That's because people want to know the "right" answer to that question. In particular, people often ask: Do you preach from a full script, or from notes?

No right answer

There is no right answer, because it will vary according to your personality, context, and the kind of talk or sermon you're delivering.

Update – December 2025: Sadly, MinIO is no more, by a series of steps. First, they changed it so that the free version did not contain many of the tools a user might need (like the admin GUI). Then they changed it so you had to compile the free version yourself from source. They even made it so that if you want to use the docker version, you had to compile that yourself too (which defeats the whole concept of docker). Then they made it so you have to compile and self-host their documentation if you want to refer to that.
