Monday Musings

“Ministering like the Master is not just a question, then, of teaching the truth.  The truth must be taught in open contrast to error.  It is not enough to point to the right road; we must also tell our hearers what the wrong road looks like and where it leads.  Such an approach is always arresting.  It makes the truth crystal clear and delivers the audience from boredom, as our Lord’s original hearers quickly found out.”

-Stuart Olyott, Ministering Like The Master (Edinburgh: Banner of Truth, 2003), 11-12.
