Subscribeon the task of a preacher
Doctrine, i.e., teaching, is the preacher’s chief business. Truth is the life blood of piety, without which we cannot maintain its vitality or support its activity. And to teach people truth, or to revive what they already know into freshness and power, is the preacher’s great means of doing good. The facts and truths which belong to the scriptural accounts of sin, providence, and redemption, form the staple of all scriptural preaching…The preacher who can make doctrinal truth interesting as well as intelligible to his congregation and gradually teach them the doctrines of the Bible is rendering them an inestimable service…Our task is loving these truths ourselves, to make others love them.
John A. Broadus, On the Preparation and Delivery of Sermons, 62-63.
