    Is there such a thing as preaching in the power of the holy Spirit?

    Do you think a preacher today is in a similar position to saint Stephen the martyr? Saint Stephen's sermon was mainly a rehearsal of the history of Israel. He brought home the core truth of Israel's existence. Their trials and works and their failings. He finally pointed to Jesus as the...

    Pronouncing God's name. Properly.

    Many think that the proper pronunciation of God's name is is lost and that approximations such as Yahweh, Jehovah, Yehowah or some variant is the best we can do. Some search the holy scriptures looking for hints about the proper way to say God's name by checking how parts of his name are...

    I see the depth I cannot reach the bottom.

    Ought humility about our own cleverness and humility about human abilities ought to guide us in theology? Saint Augustine observed "I see the depth I cannot reach the bottom".

    What sets your heart on fire to serve God?

    What sets your heart on fire to serve God? Is it learning to see and appreciate the attributes of God and how the holy scriptures came down to us? Is it great worship and thrilling preaching? Is it a deep and moving experience of God? Or is it something else? If you answer then think through...

    Was Jesus left alone and lonely by God when he died ...

    Some preachers, especially televangelists, suggest that Jesus was deserted by God when he was dying on the cross. Do you believe that was what happened?

    Long sermons ...

    Is it by many words that God's voice is heard in a sermon or is it by something else? I am wondering if long sermons are good sermons - assuming that long or short the sermons are grounded in the holy scriptures and aim at edifying the faithful.

    Many people talk about anointed preaching and Spirit empowered preaching and that seems to mean that the holy Spirit has had a special and direct influence on what was said in a sermon rather than that the preaching was well thought out, clear, and well presented so that the listeners know what...

    There seems, in the holy scriptures, to be two categories for the glory of God. First there is God's own glory which seems to be unchanging and eternal. It is what makes God God. He will not share it with another. Second there is the glory that the faithful ascribe to God. The praises and...
