Does your message connect?

Here’s a quote from Martyn Lloyd Jones about why he taught preaching and the value he saw in true preaching:
open-bible
“But, ultimately, my reason for being very ready to give these lectures is that to me the work of preaching is the highest and the greatest and most glorious calling to which anyone can ever be called. If you want something in addition to that I would say without hesitation that the most urgent need in the Christian Church today is true preaching; and as it is the greatest and most urgent need in the Church, it is obviously the greatest need of the world also.” (Dr. Martyn Lloyd-Jones)

Have you ever heard a sermon that missed?  It just didn’t connect with the people.

Now, have you ever heard a message that changed your life?

What is the difference?
