Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book analyzes the state of mid-19th century preaching, a time of declining interest and perceived ineffectiveness. The author argues the main cause to be the influence of scholastic theology and the resulting overly technical and dogmatic preaching style. He contends that this overwrought and artificial manner is driving people away from the pulpit and that a return to the earnest, simple, and powerful address of the early church is needed. The author presents a detailed examination of the historical development of Christian preaching from its humble origins to its current state, with specific examples of sermons from various eras to illustrate his points. In addition to providing a historical overview, the author delves into the depths of rhetoric and oratorical techniques to provide practical advice on how to improve preaching. The author concludes by emphasizing the crucial role of the pulpit in moral development and the need for preachers to embrace a more natural and heartfelt approach to re-establish its power and influence.
