On #preaching: “A man may preach every day of the week and not have his heart engaged once.” – John Owen (from: The Complete Gathered Gold, by John Blanchard)
On #preaching: “How many sermons have been preached before people, and how few have been preached at them! Yet the sermons that are preached before us are good for nothing, and the sermons that are preached at us are the only ones that are likely to be blessed to us.” – Spurgeon
@realmattcarr If Israel was never the point then why did God make an irrevocable promise to them? If you deny this then you replace Israel. No other way of looking at it.

@Gabepluguez This is an extremely arrogant and unloving post. You think it’s godly to drop hints at what church you attended for 9 months just to publicly shame a pastor for being overweight. While gluttony is sin so is body worship to which Paul warned Timothy about (1 Tim. 4:8)
“The kind of God we believe in determines the kind of sermons we preach. The essential secret is not mastering certain techniques but being mastered by certain convictions. In other words, theology is more important that methodology.”
- John Stott
"Do not be too downcast if you happen to have a very bad service... There is a real danger of putting our faith in our sermon rather than in the Spirit. Our faith should not be in the sermon, it should be in the Holy Spirit himself."
-Martyn Lloyd-Jones
