    I use notes. I have to because my background is in teaching, where I have more latitude and more time to get to the point. So, if I don't, I have a tendency to ramble.

    I move around, but not too much. I can't stand preachers who walk around like they're performing.

    It's not always about being louder. We don't speak in a monotone and raising and lowering our voice can be for emphasis or demonstration.

    It depends on the sermon and what the notes are.

    Topical preaching has an important place, but I believe the emphasis should be on expository preaching.

    When I preach:
    1. I preach Passionately.
    2. I try not to spit.
    3. I make notes.
    4. I try not to be trifling.

    In my "neck of the woods" we called primitive Baptists "hardshell". Course we were not as sophisticated as refugees from Bloody Breathitt!

    No one should sit under the Joel Osteen type preacher!

    That makes me a hardshell" an anomaly in a Southern Baptist Church. Nowadays they think they must keep up with the latest trends.
