Excerpt from Sermon Reading

AN oosterzee, in his Practice of The ology, complains that the History Of the Art Of Preaching is only for too many terra incog nita, but allows validity to the excuse that there is yet wanting a good history Of the Art. Furthermore, the exceeding meagerness, in all Church annals, Of reference to that institution, dignified and emphasized by the final command Of Christ to his Disciples, is like a surprise, disap pointment and mystery to the student Of Chris tian history. Therefore, the task Of presenting any historic phase of this subject is not an easy one. Hence, I bespeak the forbearing consid cration Of my readers in this attempt in a brief and imperfect way to tell whence and how the practice of sermons in the pulpit has come to be so familiar with us.
