366. Three Fundamental Methods of Preaching. The Writing of Ser- mons, The, article on, by Prof. Edwards A. Park, 566; definition of terms, 556; a fourth method, the intermingling of the three methods, 567; Dr. Hall's method of preaching, 568; questions of the preferableness of method: neither universally preferable, 569; the three methods should be intermingled, 570; a majority of a man's sermons should be preached extempore, 571; three different methods of writing, 572; the whole sermon may be written in the preacher's most elaborate style, 572; this method of writing requires time, 573; good results of this method, 574; it gives a useful discipline to the preacher's intellect, 574; to his heart, 575; it stimulates preacher and people to obtain large views of truth, 575; it promotes the literary, as well as religious, education of the people, 576; gives authority to the preacher, 577; it imparts va- riety to the preacher's ministra- tion, 578; it prepares the minister for exigencies, 579; it qualifies a man to preach extempore, 580; it tends to perpetuate the minis- ter's influence, 582; evil results of the plan: danger of repressing the life and elasticity of sermons by minute criticism in the words, 584; a minister may improve himself while he may not improve the sermon, 585; danger of be- littling himself by too much labor on a single discourse, 586; John Foster's example, 587; danger of spending time in writing sermons which may be spent in writing books, 589; of neglecting extem- porary sermons, 590; of failing
to make a good impression on the people, 591; a second method, in which not the whole, but por- tions, of a sermon are written in the best manner, 593; a third method, writing without premedi- tation, 595; evil effects of this mode of writing, 596; Carlyle's description of this mode, 597; rules for the writing of sermons, 707; strive to make external cir- cumstances, and especially the physical state, conducive to facil- ity in writing, 707; the place, 707; the time, 708; the physical condition, 710; gluttony to be guarded against, 711; indolence, 712; hold up before the mind a high ideal of a sermon, but sacri- fice minutiae to general useful- ness, 714; the maxim that a min- ister should not preach beyond his own experience, 714; that he should not preach beyond the experience of his hearers, 715; an appropriate interest in what one is writing to be cultivated, 717; a theme fixed upon such as one chooses to write on, 717; write with a hearty love to the subject, 718; the emotions of sor- row or pity corresponding to the subject should be felt by the writer, 718; do justice to the subject, and so enliven your interest in it, 719; avoid all processes which damp ardor in writing, 719; the theme of one elaborate sermon should be made a prominent ob- ject of interest till that subject is finished, 720; the hope of seeing good results to be cultivated, 721; and the expectation of immediate benefit, 721; write in a state of awakened religious feeling, 722; the appropriate excitement of the sensibilities an aid to accuracy of composition, 722; free and full play should be given to the mind while meditating on the subject of discourse, 723; importance of writing down just such thoughts as occur, and as they occur, after a theme has been chosen, 725; a full mastery of the theme to be obtained, 727; the discourse should
be penned rapidly, 728; writing should be done continuously, 730; after writing, criticise and amend, 730; consistency of celerity of writing with careful elaboration, 731; quotation from Paley, 732; in criticism the chief object should be the idea rather than the man- ner of expressing it, 733; note down, while writing one part of a sermon, thoughts which may occur appropriate to another part, 735; avoid unnecessary fatigue, 736; a reason for the superior impressiveness of the older divines that they went from the closet to the pulpit, 738.

What can be done for Augmenting
the Number of Christian Minis- ters, article on, by Prof. Edwards A. Park, 60; prayer, the most expeditious means; all prayer to be accompanied with labor, 61; errors which hold back many from the ministry, 61; that a man des- titute of the moral qualifications is not obligated to become a min- ister, 61; that ministers more than all others are doomed to a life of uncompensated self-denial, 65; not religious men alone doomed to suffer peculiar hardships, 67; there are valuable clerical compensa- tions, 67; errors of the parishes, as well as of young men, 68; that the sensibilities of pastors are not to be cared for, 68; not a suffi- cient reason for not being a minis- ter, that a young man has not the spirit to encounter the worst evils of the pastorate, 70; in order to increase the number of Christian ministers, the interest of the peo- ple in Christian instruction must be increased, 73; young men moved by sympathy with the peo- ple as well with each other, 74; parishes of New England formerly allowed their pastors time for re- tirement and study, 75; erudition of the older ministers, 76; the minister must have means for Biblical study, 77; ministers should be encouraged to become authors of religious books, 78; mode of giving to both ministers and peo- ple the requisite taste for sacred
study, 79; studies checked by the want of books, 80; the pastorate should be accommodated to the varying exigencies of the people, 82; chances of population in New England requiring correspondent changes among churches and min- isters, 82; some ministers to be more and others less thoroughly educated, 84; necessity for the reconversion of men who have been converted once, 86; attach- ment to pursuits uncongenial with the gospel the cause of the reluct- ance of young men to enter the ministry, 87; the blame of this reluctance not due to the young men alone nor to the churches alone, 88; necessity of a better life in those who are already preachers, 89; the objection to entering the ministry, drawn from the smallness of its pecuniary sup- ports sometimes answered by asserting that it is as great as that given to other men of equal merit, 90; by asserting that inadequacy of support does not diminish the number of ministers, 91; quotation from "Statement of Facts respect- ing Minister's Salaries," 91; ex- tracts from a letter of Pres. Ed- wards, in opposition to the prac- tice of lay-preaching, 95; extract bearing on the same point from Johnson's "Wonder-working Prov- idence of Sion's Saviour in New England," 99.
