No man preaches that sermon well to others, who doth not first preach it to his own heart.

On a Hill Far Away, and Not Like in the Song!
If the expositor finds himself out of sight of Calvary, that shows that he has lost his way.

We Do Not Live by Bread Alone
Be careful how you hear preaching this weekend!
It is not mere words that nourish the soul, but God Himself, and unless and until the hearers find God in personal experience, they are not the better for having heard the truth.
Preacher, Get out of Your Own Way!
I simply taught, preached, and wrote God’s Word; otherwise I did nothing.

Pastor, Keep It Simple
I REALLY struggle with this!

Pray for the Preaching You Will Hear This Weekend
Why is it that some Christians, although they hear many sermons, make but slow advances in the divine life? Because they neglect their closets, and do not thoughtfully meditate on God’s Word. From such folly deliver us, O Lord.
The Ministry of Reconciliation
The ministry of proclaiming the gospel is the ministry, not of testimony merely, but of reconciliation. It has as its object the actual reconciliation of the whole world.
Pray for the Preaching in Your Church

No Better Preaching Than the Gospel
Pastor, on this Monday, don’t fret about what you think you didn’t say adequately or wish you had said differently or even not at all. Take heart from George Whitefield’s words:
“Other men may preach better than I, but no man can preach a better gospel.”
George Whitefield (1714 – 1770)
