The object of preaching is to constantly remind mankind of what they keep forgetting; not to supply the intellect, but to fortify the feebleness of human resolutions.

Preaching is God's great institution for the planting and maturing of spiritual life. When properly executed, its benefits are untold; when wrongly executed, no evil can exceed its damaging results.

Vastly more important than all questions with regard to methods of preaching is the root question as to what it is that shall be preached.

Preaching is the expression of the moral sentiment in application to the duties of life.

Did they preach one thing and practice another, these men of God?

Preaching is personal counseling on a group basis.

Effective preaching starts with loving the people we're preaching to.

Preaching is effective as long as the preacher expects something to happen-not because of the sermon, not even because of the preacher, but because of God.
