The differences in sermons over those three hundred years is really eye-opening.

CeeJay — Plus this sermon is something like 17,000 words. Holy smokes! I tend to do long sermons by today’s standards, but my sermons rarely run over 3,000 words.

I cannot imagine too many ministers who could get away with preaching a sermon so steeped in philosophy and logic.

Few Church’s have much sense of history it seems to me… Few of us know what was being preached 20, 30, 100, or 200 years ago from our pulpits.
