The three guys enjoy a discussion on the place of illustrations in a sermon. The purposes of an illustration are highlighted. What constitutes a proper versus a misused illustration is tackled a bit, with some examples given of each. Attention to word imagery by preachers is encouraged. Sources for illustrations are given. Along the way some favorite brief examples are given. Spurgeon’s illustration of a sermon illustration is referenced, even giving the name to this episode. And Aaron remembers a potato!

Listen and we think you will find this episode lives up to the “lively conversations” bit in the 3GT byline!
