The wisdom of Allberry

Talking to Sam Allberry today, curate of St Ebbe's, about preaching, he came up with a couple of golden sayings. Or, he may have stolen them, but they were pretty good anyway:

Don't turn church into an airport lounge - the kind of place that is threatening to no-one but home to no-one either.

Preaching ought to be to the converted.

Preaching is truth through personality.
