I don't like to consider myself a normal preacher. When you look at religious people, they're the ones who hung Christ from the cross. I look at myself as a man carrying a message of hope.

I'd make a bad preacher.

Now, I don't mind making fun of those preachers who steal money from people, they kind of deserve it.

I am growing more and more aware that all too often we preachers aim at nothing and hit it.

The preacher's sharpest and strongest preaching should be to himself. His most difficult, delicate, laborious, and thorough work must be with himself.

Preachers denounce sin as if it was available to everyone.

Every preacher who does not make prayer a mighty factor in his own life and ministry is weak as a factor in God's work and is powerless to project God's cause in this world.

Society can overlook murder, adultery or swindling; it never forgives preaching of a new gospel.

To be a preacher requires two apparently contradictory qualities: confidence and humility.
