The Pastor's Obligation to Feed the People
Jeremiah 3:15
And I will give you pastors according to my heart, which shall feed you with knowledge and understanding.


The Rev. Robert Hall of Bristol was asked what he thought of a sermon which had been delivered by a proverbially fine preacher, and which had seemed to excite a great sensation among the congregation: "Very fine, sir," he replied, "but a man cannot feed upon flowers."
