I haven't posted yet, but you can feel free to include ME in this list. My opinion of preachers who have perfected the hollering, screaming, shouting, and stomping is well documented.
Now you see???? I appreciate you at least admitting
This Randy. MOST of the People that Have Left Pentecost
and have moved on to Charismatic churches develop
a distain for this style of delivery. It's true no matter who
tries to deny it

Hey, I NEVER liked it -even when I was IN the UPC. I always saw it for what it was.... Decibels as a replacement for substance. Or like a cheap Chinese restaurant serving 95% white rice and 5% everything else.
I remember he was a terror for soundmen because he could never hear himself in the monitors loud enough. His excuse; he supposedly lost some of his hearing from duck hunting.
I'm assuming he's also changed his method of "preaching".
Over the last several years when I heard him preach, he maintained much of his oratorical flare and passionate delivery and toned down his demonstrativeness.

I had panic attacks in the 70s as a small child from all the rapture trauma i suffered.
im not kidding. if i couldnt find my mama, I thought I had been left behind and would panic. I would go off by myself because I didnt want anyone to see it.
eventually I created a plan to get my parents money, my dads guns and located a place deep in the woods to go hide.
had a real hard time coming to grips with the notion that I would have to get my head chopped off to be saved.
all the time I was saved. Those 1970's end time preachers scared me. By panic attacks, I mean I coulndt breath, i would go weak in the knees and my heart would beat so fast, it would pound in my head to the point that was all I could hear.
Every once in a while, my flesh rises up and I want to punch one of those dudes in the eyeball.
then I repent and its all good.
We had some friends who were newly married in the late 80's & one night her husband got up to go to the bathroom.
She snuck out of bed & hid in the closet, he came back from the bathroom & went "honey, honey?"
He thought the rapture had taken place until after a while she popped out of the closet!

I guess this means I haven't left Pentecost, or gone charismatic then, huh?

I don't when preachers are designated to TEACH
and rather they start screaming. However, I don't think
it's right to try to put a wet blanket on passion, exuberance
and enthusiam over the word when it's delivered via preaching

When there is a reason for a preacher to be excited, you can tell. But when the 'excitement' and volume is part of the planned delivery -which consists of nothing but canned well-known versus filled with plenty of "common now! Let me hear you clap!" type lines, then I know there is no cloths on this emperor.

So basically you are say he is not a "screamer" anymore?
