Elements of a Good Sermon by Haddon Robinson

Here's some great advice about preaching from Haddon Robinson a professor from Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary as well as a popular radio broadcaster on the show, Discover the Word.  Frankly, I wanted to make sure that I personally never forget this message - that's why I include it here.  But if you have two minutes and forty seconds, you might want to watch the YouTube video below.

7 Elements of a Good Sermon:

1. Oriented to the Scriptures, but it's also oriented to the men and women in the pews.   
2. A good sermon bridges the gap to the 21st century.
3. A good sermon is well delivered. 
4. It's also spontaneous.  
5. Simple - Takes profound truth and states it in a way that people can understand.
6. Good preaching is enthusiastic.  The hearer feels this person wants to be heard.
