Quiet Suggestions to Growing Preachers is a booklet of advice by Charles E. Jefferson. As an experienced clergyman, he could write short but sharpened, smart and still relevant remarks, like: "If a minister says he adores God, and in his center slights or despises his people, he's not only a liar but a murderer of the spiritual life of his parish."
"Honorable men won't toy with churches."
"Popularity is the most fearful of most exams."
"The clergyman who is in a position to trudge bravely through the years, filling the a few months with quiet honest work, pressing himself close upon his people and keeping his people and himself near the center of Christ may cause little stir on earth but he'll make an impression which will be believed in heaven."
"Envy is a sin of weakness, and whoever is guilty of it confesses his inferiority."
"Sheep prefer to be fed. They never avoid. When repeatedly fed by the same shepherd they'll follow him whithersoever he leads them."
