Michael Cooper discusses The Dangerous Task of Expository Preaching. “Just think about the ridiculous nature of preaching for a moment. People take an hour or so out of their week to listen to an oral presentation from an ancient book that contains documents that are over 2,000 years old.”

Spurgeon

Light thoughts of sin breed light thoughts of the Saviour.

—C.H. Spurgeon
