| | Hi and some questions | | What an amazing site and my thanks to all who have worked so hard to not only compile the resources but to make it available, for free, to others!
Questions:
1. Do you prefer to read the sermons or to hear them?
2. Which sermons (speakers)have ministered the most to you?
3. When you research or seek further information/understanding do you find it easier to search by topic, scripture or by speaker?
I appreciate your answers.

1. I prefer to listen though every now and then i read.
2. Times Square Church staff: David Wilkerson and Carter Conlon
3. Theres no search feature on here. it was taken down not too long ago. but i usually do google searches on the speaker and what the speaker thinks of an issue

| | Re: Hi and some questions | | Dear Maria,
I am relatively new, too, so I'm not very savvy. Welcome.
I enjoy listening to the audio sermons. I tend to listen to the preachers who have come through trials and tribulations - they offer great encouragement: Richard Wurmbrand, Robert B.Thompson, Mother Basilea Schlink (not her sermons read by others), and Corrie Ten Boom, to name a few.
When I am doing research or dealing with a particular subject, I go to the topic portion. Occasionally, that leads to a mediocre sermon, so I just stop and start a new one. I never thought to use Google to narrow the topic field!
Blessings. |

| | Re: Hi and some questions | | Wow Lisa. Thank you for the links of some of your favourites. As a lot of the names on the site are unfamiliar this is helpful to know.
Blessings to you,
Maria

| | Re: Hi and some questions | | Welcome to SI! The site and people here have helped me mature and grow so much!
1. I prefer a bit of both if the preacher has a transcript of their sermon I like to have that up while the sermon itself is going.
2. Paris Reidhead and Zac Poonen. Paris Reidhead's Ten Shekels and a Shirt has played a huge roll in shaping my thoughts and intentions in Christianity. And Brother Zac Poonen is Pentecostal but incredibly humble and wise in his teachings, he always challenges me to be a better person in Christ's strength.
3. Generally by Topic is what I go with.
