If all you get is a bunch of opinion interspersed with "Praise Gawd!" and "Can I get an amen?!" and (while reaching over his shoulder and patting himself) "That's mighty fine preachin', brother, why don't you just preach on?"

If all I'm going to get is opinion, I might as well stay home and listen to my own.

I agree on this point as well. There are alot of shouting preachers, IN ALL DENOMINATIONS! that I feel, if they did as much teaching of the word, and they did being a one man cirus act, (case in point - T.D. Jakes.) maybe people would be growing in God's Word, if these preachers were doing more to further God's kingdom, like starting soul winning ministries, Tract passin' out Ministries, Food and Clothing for the Poor Ministries, stuff like that, as they did screamin' and yellin' and acting a fool, Maybe, maybe, Just MAYBE they'd be doing something!

Then I look at these modern "Teleevanglists" like Benny Hinn, Rod Persley, T.J. Jakes, ect... who deal in the FALSE "signs and wonders" and sell thier prosperity gospel, The Bible says "They have thier reward"! 'Cause Jesus is gonna tell them "DEPART from me, Ye who work in Inquity"!

Can I Please Get a amen?

You mean like....Jack Hyles did? No amen from this corner yet.
Too many want to bombard their members with involvement in these types of activities right off the bat and then praise them for number of tracts passed out, number of doors knocked on, etc..
Good solid teaching of the Word and how to apply it to ones life will naturally lead them to the ultimate goal of Christianity...evangelism, and it will grow as members mature in their spiritual lives.
Sometimes I wonder about tracts and whether they're really overused or not, taking the place of speaking boldly for what one believes. Plus, why not simply pass out a chapter of the bible, or new testaments, plain and simple scripture if the goal is to teach about Christ? Hearing the pure and perfect word is what God uses most often to convert people, right? Not reading cute stories or in your face commentaries.
I dunno. Sometimes I wonder about everyone except me! ;) (kidding, smile, kidding)
