Richard speaks about the encouraging experience of preaching to the congregation that he grew up in and contrasting it with preaching to a tough crowd as a visiting guest speaker. Mike and Richard talk about the importance of heralding the grace of God in our sermons and cultivating a tone of generosity and warmth instead of Law and harshness. Also the dangers of social media preaching and sound-byte culture are warned against.
