T F preached the night I received the Holy Spirit.
I also enjoy D K Bernard a lot as well as Dan Seagraves.

I agree my Dad was both as well. It is like a singer who can also preach. They are blessed with more than one talent.

There is a minister in my church that I think listens to too many preaching tapes. When he preaches he has a lot of what I consider "UPC cliches" that don't have scriptural backing. My pastor doesn't preach like that at all and we don't have many visiting ministers so I figure he must have gotten his style from tapes or CDs. Too bad because I prefer a good solid message from the Bible (which my pastor excels at) rather than the latest bywords.

Your Father had one of the finest "minds" in modern day Pentecost. At 5 and 6 years old when a child normally isn't wanting to hear anything but "Amen!" I remember sitting with rapt attention to teaching that I remember vividly to this day over 55 years later!

A preacher will be quoted for the "Title of their sermon".
A teacher will be quoted as to the title of their book.
A preacher will be noted for their style.
A teacher will be noted for their insite.
Most preachers have a hard time learing new revelations.
Teachers are always first a student.
I could go on and on....
These are my own thoughts....

This post seems to make teachers superior to preachers in many ways. I don't think the Bible (or anyone else for that matter) really agrees with you. Every single time you said "preacher" you should have prefaced it with "novice", and every time you said "teacher" you should have prefaced it with "good", because you are comparing traits of a GOOD teacher to those of an inexperienced, immature or ignorant preacher.
There are plenty of GOOD preachers, and there are plenty of ignorant teachers.
I give this post an F.

Hmmm...C-minus for this one....I guess.
Assuming you're right...which is more important? The conversion or the road? Can you have one without the other?

Finally! I give this post an A+.
Okay, I'm finished grading papers.
