To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
It is not surprising that when the sermon is written in a strained pietistic tone it should be delivered in a manner equally unnatural. There are men in the ministry — ^the finest fel- lows in the world, many of them, clergymen whom their people love and with whom they are on terms of good comradeship outside the church — ^who become absolutely diflFerent beings the moment they step into the pulpit. They have a pulpit manner, a pulpit voice, and a pulpit language imlike anything seen or heard a...nywhere in the weekday world. The worst of it is that the stilted language of the pulpit is likely to be the outward and vis- ible sign of a stilted unreality in the preacher's thought. He starts with certain religious assumptions which many in the congregation are not prepared to accept. He stresses certain facts in the scheme of redemption of which many are ignorant. He takes for granted religious experiences which they have never known. He fails to touch on trials and temptations which are actual and common.
