Aims and Ends of Preaching

“…to quicken the conscience by the holiness of God, to feed the mind with the truth of God, to purge the imagination by the beauty of God, to open the heart to the love of God, to devote the will to the purpose of God.”

[James Alexander Stewart used this quote from William Temple concerning worship to define the "aims and ends of preaching." HT. The Supremecy of God in Preaching, John Piper.]
