The Decadence of Preaching: An Indictment, and a Remedy is a book written by Harold Ford in 1903. It is a critical analysis of the state of preaching in the Christian Church at the time, with the author arguing that it had become decadent and ineffective. Ford provides a detailed examination of the various reasons for this decline, including the lack of passion and conviction in the preachers, the use of overly intellectual language that alienates the congregation, and the failure to address the real concerns and needs of the people. The book also offers a remedy for this situation, with Ford advocating for a return to the simple and direct preaching of the Bible, with a focus on the practical application of its teachings to everyday life. He emphasizes the importance of preachers being authentic and sincere in their delivery, as well as being attuned to the needs and concerns of their congregations. Overall, The Decadence of Preaching is a thought-provoking and insightful critique of the state of preaching in the early 20th century, and offers valuable insights and guidance for those interested in improving the practice of preaching in the modern era.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
