Randy Pausch, a computer science professor whose “last lecture” about facing terminal cancer became an Internet sensation and a best-selling book, has died. He was 47.

I watched Randy’s lecture at least twice and each time it moved me. It really makes me wonder what I would say if I knew it was the last time to share my heart, passion, and beliefs. Since most people who read my blog are pastors, I’ll ask this question of you: What would you preach on if you knew it was your last sermon ever?
During last Sunday’s At the Movies message, I thought about my Bucket List and what it would look like. Here’s what I came up with so far:
- Travel to Australia
- Tour as many sites as I can in the UK
- Drive a Ferrari
- Take a few laps around the Indianapolis Motor Speedway
- Visit all 50 states – see where I’ve visited here
There’s a lot more I’d add to this list, but it’s a start. My takeaway from this whole thing is to not wait to live your life to the fullest. Start living it today.
