Sermons, Not Essays

Sharing Options

“Do you not think that many sermons are ‘prepared’ until the juice is crushed out of them, and zeal could not remain in such dry husks? . . . You will never get a crop if you plant boiled potates. You can boil a sermon to a turn, so that no life remaineth in it . . . Give us sermons, and save us from essays” (Charles Spurgeon, An All-Round Ministry, pp. 346-347).
