The Ethics and Etiquette of the Pulpit, Pew, Parish, Press and Platform: A Manual of Manners for Ministers and Members (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from The Ethics and Etiquette of the Pulpit, Pew, Parish, Press and Platform: A Manual of Manners for Ministers and Members

A preacher must be a gentleman. In the degree he falls below that does he stop short of meeting popular demand and is unsuccessful. Society will not tolerate, in a minister, cant, slang, pet phrases, and vulgar habits. He must be a man of clean hands, literally, as well as of a pure heart. Un spotted linen and a clean heart complement each other. Speech must be seasoned with salt.
