In that publication he called the homiletical section \"Preaching Helps.\" But he explained that the emphasis was to be put on the second word. \"It is more than a noun. It's a verb,\" he said. \"Preaching does help! Preaching conveys both the wisdom and power of God.\" \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eWhen sermons only\u003ci\u003e talk \u003c\/i\u003eabout the gospel, they fail to utilize the power. They may be wise, but they don't work the work of God. Medics who answer a 911 call do more than talk about CPR. They diagnose. Then they supply the breath of life. In these gospel-based sermons Hoyer shows how to draw out the power of the word. His messages breathe life and hope into listening ears. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eGeorge W.
