Indeed, his entire life was for that sole purpose. He preached out of conviction. That's why he could tell members of the Kouts Christian Church, I wil teach, so you can put my salary into a building fund. Not only did he teach school , he had to go to school, and he also helped work on the building, he led by example.
And, when we lived at home, we were recruited into His service. We taught Sunday School, we graded papers, we followed after him.
When dating Carol, I had to explain that our date nights would have to be Friday nights. Saturday night was for studying my Sunday School lesson. I hd been teaching Sunday School since high school.
