For Pastors,
How do you personally use the reading of sermons from other ministers? Does this help with sermon preparation or more with regard to a minister’s own personal devotion?
I recently purchased the BOT 22 Volume set of Manton sermons and it dawned on me to ask, “How do some reformed Pastors utilize the sermons of their forefathers and/or peers?”.
This might help others know what are some of the best things, to donate to a Pastor’s (green or seasoned) library.
P.S. I will add that I have spent most of my reading, outside of scripture, on reading systematic theology books, commentaries, and topical works. This Manton set will really be the first time I have tried to add reading sermons to my diet as compared to listening only.
