Expository Preaching: Plans and Methods

By F. B. Meyer

A Famous teacher of Homiletics in an American school used to tell his students a generation ago that the one kind of preaching which always wore was the Expository. The experience of his students, now honored and wise leaders of their own generations, has many times confirmed this. It is not pulpit eloquence no matter how brilliant, nor topical preaching no matter how timely, wise, varied, or epigrammatic, which best resists the wear and tear of time in a long pastorate with its steady and unceasing demand for sermons, week in, week out, which feed and nourish and inspire the flock.

No other style of preaching can so completely guarantee immunity from an indulgence in special crochets and fads.
