03-Nothing New Under the Sun

It is but to state the obvious when I point out that I am not
the first to draw attention to the inadequacy of monologue
preaching as the teaching tool in the churches. Far from it!
Nevertheless, mixing my metaphors, I think I ought to throw
my mite into the balance. For the disappointing fact that we
have to face is, as David C.Norrington acknowledged in his
seminal To Preach or not to Preach? The Church’s Urgent
Question, churches are hard to shift.
