Stealing Sermons

JOE THORN & JIMMY FOWLER
About this episode

Joe and Jimmy sit down to discuss sermons stealing right after having a couple's fight over lunch. What do the guys think of using other preacher's sermons for their own congregations? What's the harm? When does using other's work become a sin issue? What should a preacher do if he has to preach but has little time to prepare? Plus, antidotes vs. anecdotes.
