“What has exceedingly hurt you is the want for reading…Your preaching is lively, but not deep, there is little variety; there is no compass of thought. Reading only can supply this, with daily prayer. You can never be a deep preacher without it any more than a thorough Christian. Whether you like it or not, read. It is your life; there is no other way; else you will be a trifle all your days, and a pretty superficial preacher.”
-John Wesley to a young pastor
