Short sermons dumb down the gospel? If you have a problem with short messages, than you have a problem with our founder, Jesus Christ. I took a stopwatch and timed the parables of Jesus. Their average length? Just 38 seconds. The longest parable? Two minutes, twenty seconds. Christ showed us clearly: it is not the length of the message but its impact that makes a difference in men’s lives.
What do you think? Short sermon or long?

YOUR RIGHT LENGTH DOES DON’T MATTER. LOVE IT!!!!
I’ve heard preachers go on for about hr and above and you get some truths and a lot of rabbit chasing and repetition and I’ve heard 30 min sermons preached with such power that have to hit an altar
