Two Kinds of Study

Sharing Options

“The preacher’s life must be a life of large accumulation . . . He must not be always seeking to make sermons, but always seeking truth, and out of the truth which he has won the sermons will make themselves . . . Here is the need for broad and generous culture. Learn to study for the sake of truth, learn to think for the profit and the joy of thinking. Then your sermons will be like the leaping of a fountain, and not like the pumping of a pump” (Bishop Phillips Brooks, as quoted in Stott, Between Two Worlds, p. 180).
