Helps for the Pulpit, or Sketches and Skeletons of Sermons (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from Helps for the Pulpit, or Sketches and Skeletons of Sermons

The design of this volume is to assist ministers in their prepara tions for preaching the Gospel of Christ. Hence its title is, Helps for the Pulpit. The greater part of the Outlines have been the guide of the Author in his public ministrations; and he believes that they were not only delivered with pleasure to himself, but also, through Divine influence, made a blessing to some who heard them. The sermon itself generally occupied from three-quarters of an hour to one hour in the delivery; but some of the Outlines will not take more than ten minutes to read them, and the others rather less. The preface or introduction to each discourse is generally short, blanks being introduced there, and also throughout each Outline, to indicate room for amplification. The Author has, in most cases, endeavored to preserve unity of design respecting the subject of the text, and to make the divisions natural and striking.
