The Heart of Preaching

Apart from the fact that there are myriad books on 'how to preach', including the famous Preachers and Preaching by Dr Martyn Lloyd-Jones, this offering is more along the lines of what not to say or do, and what to look out for, to be aware of - from a preacher's point of view as well as the listeners point of view. This offering is based on over six decades of listening, well ok, hearing sermons from many preachers. Whilst I did a stretch of 13 years on the 'preacher's circuit' I The title derived from what I believe should be central to any preaching, that is, the message should come from the heart (plus lots of study and prayer of course), and not seen as a theological college-based exercise put into practice. In modern speak I believe many preachers didn't get the email (or whatever social media they may use)!
