  1. Great quote by Alistair.

    I read this little booklet awhile back and thoroughly enjoyed it. He really does a good job showing just how pathetic preaching has become today and what pastors can do to remedy the problem: Practice expository preaching with a high view of God and His glory.

    Keep up the insightful posts, links and quotes Josh.

    Soli Deo Gloria!
