Collected by Croft Pentz It takes great listening as well as great preaching to make a good sermon. A great deal of what we see depends upon what we are listening to. The first step to wisdom is silence--the second is listening. Lend a man your ears and you will immediately open a pathway to his heart. God speaks to those who have time to listen.
