How to Preach a Lousy Sermon There are some people in the congregation that would devour a bad sermon and yet will not take the opportune time to give good feedback. We know that greedy people will gobble up whatever is put before them. What is tasteful to some is not necessarily tasteful to others. Not everyone in the pulpit is gifted by God to preach.
