I wish to preach not the doctrine of ignoble ease but the doctrine of the strenuous life.

If in preaching the gospel you substitute your knowledge of the way of salvation for confidence in the power of the gospel you hinder people from getting to reality.

I can't really put it in one sentence because although on one hand Preacher is about faith and yes it is also about I suppose the search for God the search for faith and the manipulation and the abuse committed by figures in whom I suppose people have faith.
