" A good sermon has the heft of a solid week’s work (at least), yet wears its labor lightly. My homiletics professor said the rule was one hour of work per minute of sermon, say fifteen, sixteen hours on average, which always seemed scant to me. But I’m a slow writer. Then again, ministers don’t usually write for publication and good delivery can finesse many an unpolished sentence and awkward transition. "
