The Decadence Of Preaching: An Indictment, And A Remedy is a book written by Harold Ford and published in 1903. The book is a critical analysis of the state of preaching in the early 20th century and offers a remedy to address the perceived decline in the quality of preaching. In the book, Ford argues that preaching has become decadent and ineffective due to a number of factors such as a lack of preparation, a focus on entertainment rather than edification, and a failure to address contemporary issues. He also criticizes preachers for their lack of theological depth and their tendency to rely on clich�����s and platitudes rather than engaging with the complexities of faith and life.Despite these criticisms, Ford offers a remedy for the decline of preaching. He argues that preachers need to return to the basics of their craft, including a focus on biblical exegesis, theological reflection, and careful preparation. He also suggests that preachers need to be more engaged with the social and political issues of their time and to address these issues from a prophetic standpoint.Overall, The Decadence Of Preaching: An Indictment, And A Remedy is a thought-provoking book that challenges preachers to rethink their approach to preaching and to strive for greater depth and relevance in their messages.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
