FROM THE BULLETIN:
How To Preach
By Brother Preacher
I LOVE to preach. What I DON’T love is coming up with sermons. THAT’S a drag. Or as the Greeks would say: drag-a-mite-a-wah-doh-tay.
So here are some preacher tips I’ve collected over the years for you to remember when getting your hermeneutic on:
1.) Always use three points that rhyme, and start with the same letter. For example: Bible, Blible, Blimple (close enough).
2.) Tell at least two jokes, one that’s self-deprecating and one about your KIDS that you completely make up but SAY is true. Everybody LOVES jokes about Preacher’s kids - except Preacher’s kids.
3.) Poem use should be kept to a MINIMUM, and deployed ONLY in extreme preaching emergencies. When in doubt, skip it!
4.) Close with a lost puppy story that makes everybody cry.
As together we stand and sing.
