Lecture by Dr. John Carrick

I recently came across a lecture by Dr. John Carrick, a Presbyterian homiletics professor at Greenville Seminary, on the subject of reading sermons. Suffice it to say that he is against it. He makes the most compelling argument I have ever heard for preaching freely in the extemporaneous style. I have a link to his lecture on my web site at (http://www.extemporaneouspreaching.wikispaces.com/) or you can find it at. (http://www.sermonaudio.com/?sermoninfo.asp?SID=124092165410. I must warn you that if you are still reading your sermons you may not want to listen to this as his arguments against the practice are very compelling.
