For preachers who want to get better

This classic on preaching is read well (though not outstandingly) and is easy to listen to.

Prayer is half the battle.

Knowing the text, showing the text, and exhorting all 7 groups of listeners, without any notes, full of fervor for the glory of God and love for the people is what this little nugget is all about.
