How We Say It
In The Preacher on Preaching, Danny Akin made the point,
What we say is more important than how we say it, but how we say has never been more important.
He used Ecclesiastes 12:9-12 bibrefecclesiastes12 bibrefecclesiastes12v9 bibrefecclesiastes12v10 bibrefecclesiastes12v11 bibrefecclesiastes12v12 (especially verse 10) to emphasize that dull words are not delightful.
Other thoughts I had while listening to this message:
- The preacher’s passion is different than the preacher’s polish.
- If the preacher is boring because he is disinterested, that preaching is sinful.
