In this column last month, we commented on the preaching in some evangelical churches. This theme is now picked up by Bill James, Principal of London Seminary, and also a member of the new Theology Team of the Fellowship of Independent Evangelical Churches (FIEC).
He says (p.2): ‘When I was young, I remember having a profound sense of the presence of God when listening to sermons… [But] in the generations following [Martyn] Lloyd-Jones there has been less of a sense of the supernatural in church preaching.’ He describes it as like ‘hot food served on a cold plate’.
