As a Lay Minister lacking a degree in Theology, I have always made the extra effort to ensure that I was being true to the text by examining many commentaries from both conservative and more liberal perspectives. The result is a tendancy to come across as more of a teacher than providing application oriented sermons. I feel that I have to work hard to strike the proper balance between correct doctrine and a message that appeals to the heart. I'm glad to read articles that stress the proper application of doctrine rather than jokes and stories sprinkled with the Biblical text. Great article.
