THE PREACHER'S TECHNIQUE

not you who are to dazzle men with your grasp of the truth, or your powers as a defender of the faith; it is not you who are going to convert souls and unlock the shining gates to which only Jesus has the key. Bring everything you have and are to your ministry–your best craftsmanship, your most concentrated study, your truest technique, your uttermost of self-consecration, your toil and sweat of brain and heart–bring it all without reserve. But when you have brought it, something else remains: Stand back, and see the salvation of God.
