“Preaching is the art of making a sermon and delivering it. Why - TopicsExpress



          

“Preaching is the art of making a sermon and delivering it. Why no, that is not preaching. Preaching is the art of making a preacher, and delivering that. Preaching is the outrush of soul in speech. Therefore the elemental business of preaching is not with the preaching but with the preacher. It is no trouble to preach, but a vast trouble to construct a preacher. What, then, in the light of this is the task of a preacher? Mainly this, the amassing of a great soul so as to have something worthwhile to give—the sermon is the preacher up to date.” ~ Bishop William Alfred Quayle (1860 –1925), quoted by William Barclay in “Fishers of Men” (The Westminster Press, 1966).
