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://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8261</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Fare ye well, and give us your applause. [Lat., Vos valete et plaudite.] ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/2928]]></link><description><![CDATA[Fare ye well, and give us your applause. [Lat., Vos valete et plaudite.]]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/2928</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of Timothy and Titus, Companions of Paul Commemoration of Dorothy Kerin, Founder of the Burrswood Healing Community, 1963  ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7005]]></link><description><![CDATA[Feast of Timothy and Titus, Companions of Paul Commemoration of Dorothy Kerin, Founder of the Burrswood Healing Community, 1963   That you cannot have Christian principles without Christ is becoming increasingly clear [in the world today], because their validity as principles depends on Christ's authority.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7005</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I disagree with what you say, but I'll defend to the death your right to say it. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16689]]></link><description><![CDATA[I disagree with what you say, but I'll defend to the death your right to say it.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16689</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Most people have no idea of the giant capacity we can immediately command when we focus all of our resources ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16308]]></link><description><![CDATA[Most people have no idea of the giant capacity we can immediately command when we focus all of our resources on mastering a single area of our lives.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16308</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Stories serve the purpose of consolidating whatever gains people or their leaders have made or imagine they have made in ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/31489]]></link><description><![CDATA[Stories serve the purpose of consolidating whatever gains people or their leaders have made or imagine they have made in their existing journey thorough the world.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/31489</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Life is to be lived.
