The Gospel of God in the Mouth of Men

thats it. thats the thought that has been beyond my comprehension lately and has spurned a great burning in my heart.

The Reverence of Exaltation.

i can't put thoughts into words just yet, but Psalm 145 and Ephesians 3 have led the way. Lord willing, more on this later...

Pastors have absorbed [a] narrow view of gladness and friendliness and now cultivate it across the land with pulpit demeanor and verbal casualness… The result is a preaching atmosphere and a preaching style plagued by triviality, levity, carelessness, flippancy, and a general spirit that nothing of eternal and infinite proportions is being done or said on Sunday morning.” -Piper, The Supremacy of God in Preaching.
