Lectures on Preaching: Delivered Before the Divinity School of Yale College in January and February, 1877 (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Synopsis
Excerpt from Lectures on Preaching: Delivered Before the Divinity School of Yale College in January and February, 1877
Let me say one word more in introduction. He who is called upon to give these lectures cannot but remember that they are given every year, and that he has had very able and faithful predecessors. There are certainly, therefore, some things which he may venture to omit without being supposed to be either ignorant or careless of them. There are certain first principles, of primary importance, which he may take for granted in all that he says. They are so funda mental, that they must be always present, and their power must pervade every treatment of the work which is built upon them. But they need not be de liberately stated anew each year. It would make these courses of lectures very monotonous; and one may venture to assume that there are some elemen tary principles upon whose truth all students of the ology are agreed, and whose importance they all feel.

Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the heart of preaching, exploring its core elements and offering timeless insights for aspiring and seasoned ministers alike. The author, a renowned preacher himself, reflects on his own experiences and distills the essence of effective communication from the pulpit. By examining the historical and theological foundations of preaching, the book emphasizes its enduring significance in a world saturated with information. It argues that the unique power of preaching lies in the dynamic interplay between timeless truths and the individual personality of the preacher. This exploration goes beyond mere technique, delving into the preacher's character, his relationship with God and his understanding of human needs. It challenges the tendency to preach about Christianity rather than preaching Christ himself, calling for sermons that resonate with both intellectual depth and genuine compassion. Ultimately, this book reminds us that powerful preaching is not about cleverness or novelty, but about faithfully and authentically transmitting a message that has the potential to transform lives.
