My children refer to him as "the man who speaks funny", and indeed for one not used to it his Welsh accent is at first a difficulty, but once one gets "into the groove" of it he becomes quite rivetting (and it's interesting how quiet they become in the back seat when he is "on").<br /> <br />I concur with every point of your analysis, Guy, it is spot on.<br />As for his sermon structures, yes, I can always see where he's headed but I enjoy being taken there nonetheless. <br />I think L-J once said "a good preacher gets on fire for the Gospel and people come to watch him burn", and there can't be too many better examples of this than the doctor himself, although I would say he bruns slowly and contsantly. <br />No wonder they called him "the last puritan". Only the occasional blaring siren from the street outside that the microphone picked up, and those contemporary settings he speaks into, make one realise one has not been transported back to the 17th century.https://www.blogger.com/profile/08978657816767706667noreply@blogger.com
