MINISTER'S WHO HAVE IDEAS
Advised to Pursue the Colloquial Style
in Preaching.
GLEANINGS FROM CHURCH FIELDS

The manner of presenting the gospel to
the assemblies of Christian worshipers is
one of the i'm nportant factors in commencing
the old story. The two styles of pulpit ora
tory may be designated as the colloquial
and the impassioned. When the preacher
gets loud and boisterops, it is a fair infer
ence that his ideas are on the wane. The
preacher who has something to say mas no
need Of seeking to impress his thoughts by
loud emphasis. Important truths never
fail to emphasize themselves, and the min
lister who has something to say, and will say
it in his natural tone of voice, will never
fail to find ready hearers.
There can be no better rule for the minis
ter than this: "Be natural" The impas-
stoned style of pulpit oratory is all right
when there are ideas behind it. But, when
there are rich thoughts to be presented from
the pulpit, there is no need of noise. Truth,
presented in a simple, natural way, will be
more etfectual than when presented in the
stump-oratory style.
