Produktbeschreibung

Excerpt from Bishop Pierce´s Sermons and Addresses: With a Few Special Discourses by Dr. Pierce Three characteristic sermons of Dr. Lovick Pierce are included in this volume. It is to be regretted that no sermons of his early ministry could be found. Dr. Pierce began to write in the latter part of his seventy-five years´ ministry; it is doubtful if he wrote a dozen sermons during the first fifty years of his itinerant life. I have not found any that belong to the first forty years; there are only a few unclothed and imperfect skeletons that bear evidence of having been "put together" after preaching. For example: I find among some old scraps of papers three or four pages of notes of a discourse delivered at the funeral of the Rev. Hope Hull - a man he greatly honored and loved. One familiar with Dr. Pierce´s preaching would conclude from the size and shape of these few "bones" that this funeral-sermon was one of his two hours´ masterful discourses. Dr. Pierce never wrote many sermons; it is almost certain that he never delivered a sermon from manuscript. It would have been very awkward to him, and partly because he thought it "wrong" for a Methodist preacher to read sermons. I never saw him with a "scrap of paper" in the pulpit, except, now and then, a copy of the numbers of the hymns he had given to the choir leader. His method of preparation for the pulpit was to him so simple that he thought any man of "good natural parts" could practice it if he would, though most men who have any conception of what thorough work is could neither wear nor use the armor of this preaching king.
