A great many people sermonising in our churches today would be better off and of greater service if they absolved themselves from the bondage and disciplines of the pulpit and came down among their congregations, teaching informally on sounder educational principles. After all, the vital matter in the ministry of the Word is not that a clergyman delivers himself of a discourse but that the people to whom he ministers end up being taught something. The tragedy is that the professional clergy have been trained to sermonise and they seem overwhelmed with fears and a sense of insecurity when they contemplate other methods. A further problem, of course, is that most of our churches contain a significant number of people who become emotionally disturbed at any departure from what they have always done in the past. To them, the sermon is part of their Christianity -- even if it bores them stiff!]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8261</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Our target is to find an academy player and bring him through to the first team in two years' time. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/35075]]></link><description><![CDATA[Our target is to find an academy player and bring him through to the first team in two years' time.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/35075</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The obstinacy of cleverness and reason is nothing to the obstinacy of folly and inanity. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44846]]></link><description><![CDATA[The obstinacy of cleverness and reason is nothing to the obstinacy of folly and inanity.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44846</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[What you have seen, O Americans, in New York and Washington and the losses you are having in Afghanistan and ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/29792]]></link><description><![CDATA[What you have seen, O Americans, in New York and Washington and the losses you are having in Afghanistan and Iraq, in spite of the blackouts by your media, are only the losses of the initial clashes. ...
