“Preaching is important because God has ordained preaching!” (Page 14)
“The preaching of the Word means dispensing God’s medicine to the spiritually sick. ‘He sent forth his word and healed them’ (Ps. 107:20).” (Page 17)
“‘but I came to see that it was in studying the Word that I was to get faith.’3 If our study of the Bible doesn’t increase our own faith, then our preaching of the Bible isn’t likely to generate faith in anybody else. Not only must we believe in preaching, but we must also believe in what we preach. ‘Have faith in God’ (Mark 11:22).” (Page 27)
“You and I don’t know when we’ll preach our last sermon or when a worshiper will hear his or her last sermon, so we’d better examine what we do in the light of eternity. Jonathan Edwards frequently asked himself, ‘How much shall I value this upon my deathbed?’” (Page 51)
“The authority of the message comes from the Word and not from the approval of people” (Page 25)
