The One Question You're Asking Every Sunday

Preacher, there's really only one question that you're asking every week. It's the same question God posed to Ezekiel: Son of man, can these dry bones live? Everything hangs on that question. Can God speak through you and bring life out of death? In this week's free article, we've transcribed a classic address given by the master preacher Dr. Gardner Taylor. Rev. Taylor asks all of us preachers, "Can that first fresh resolve of enthusiasm [for preaching] come again to you? Can you get again the glory and promise of the morning bruised now and scarred by the years, wounded by opposition, hurt by our own shortcomings?" His answer is a resounding YES—but a yes that comes only from our All-powerful Lord. Read it and be inspired.

This week we also feature:
