Summary "Hints on Extemporaneous Preaching" by Henry Ware, Jr. is a instructional guide for clergy written in the early 19th century. The work discusses the art of preaching without prepared manuscripts, emphasizing its potential benefits and the necessary discipline to master it. The author aims to encourage aspiring ministers to develop this skill, highlighting its value in creating a more engaging and heartfelt connection with their audience. The beginning of the text establishes its purpose by addressing shortcomings in the training of preachers, particularly regarding the undervaluation of extemporaneous speaking. Ware discusses the advantages of this method, such as fostering a more natural delivery that resonates with listeners, and counters traditional objections regarding diction and preparation. He sets the stage for further exploration of techniques, rules, and the mindset needed for effective extemporaneous preaching, emphasizing both its accessibility and the dedication required to excel.
