Reaching for Passion

The Heart of Preaching and the Preaching Heart
Edited by Russell L Dyer, Tommy F Haynes and Jeff Jenkins

From the preaching of Noah, to John the Baptist, Jesus, and the apostles, preaching is paramount in the Bible.  God says, “How beautiful are the feet of those who preach the gospel of peace” (Romans 10:15)
- Jay Lockhart

As long as I can remember, there has never been a time in my life, when I didn’t want to preach.  With me, preaching is not a profession; it is an obsession.
- George Bailey

In no position or capacity can I imagine having a greater sense of fulfillment or accomplishment than in being a plain preacher of the glorious gospel of Jesus Christ!
- Hershel Dyer

A sermon should be a message from God revealed in Scripture coming from a spirit filled with urgency, a mind filled with knowledge, and a heart filled with love.
- Jimmy Jividen

A preacher must never doubt that God will help him fulfill his ministry, but he must also be diligent in taking care of the part of the job God leaves to him.
-   Howard Norton

The written word can go places where the author cannot.  The preacher is limited by time or place, but his written message is not so limited.
- John Gipson 

Knowledge of God’s word does not produce zeal but fuels our zeal.  Our “want to” is more significant than our “how to.”
- Richard Jones

There is no joy like that of bringing another to the Lord.
- Jerry Jenkins

Revival in the congregation begins in the pulpit!
- Les McGalliard
