The Art of Preaching (2)

Write it read it and then preach it.
Good preaching comes form clear thinking and sound reading.
The best readers are the best preachers. All preachers would be good readers. By this Mean having an ability not only to read but to read as if one speaks. the practice of audible reading helps us to articulate our speech and bring clarity to our speech. Good reading helps us to understand words and express them intelligently thoughtfully and constructively. Words paint a picture, yes, that's true. Preaching is an art, how we say it is as important as what we say. That's the art of preaching.
When you read read thoughtfully, read to understand not merely to get through a book. The same principle will help you speak so that you are understood. may can preach good but are not always understood or followed as some would say and this is because they have mastered the art of talking but never mastered that of communication. So emphasise words, emphasise key words, underline them then read these sentences or your message a few times over until the truth is conveyed from your writing. This will reveal the value of a written message. Again if you can write it you can bring clarity to the subject and objectivity to the object.  Write it read it and then preach it.
