Counsel for the Pulpit

In the pulpit avoid the queer and the jocose; but indulge freely in the strong, the apt, the striking, the sublime and the pathetic. Remember that the pulpit is not the place of "man's wisdom," but where God speaks through man. Therefore, suffer the Holy Ghost to regulate his own instrumentality. In the sacred place, proclaim all the truth; speak, and fear not, for thy God is with thee.
