I have heard that saying many times. I suppose the remark has to do with someone who preaches excitedly, emotionally, sincerely, or a combination of all three. Seems that people take more heed to hear this kind of preaching, it may have been said of our preaching by some. Well, I don't know that I have ever preached up a storm, but during the week of September 23, 1985, I preached in a storm. I was in Jacksonville, North Carolina that week preaching revival messages when hurricane Gloria went through there. It was quite an experience. I observed several tilings during that week that 1 waiuld like to put into spiritual application. First, there were days of advance warning about die storm. Secondly, some people took the warning seriously and made preparation. I saw windows in homes and businesses boarded up. Mobile homes, awnlings and many insecure items in the outdoors were secured or moved to more secure places. People took shelter in more secure places. The church building where we were preaching was used to shelter people. Thirdly, there were those people who disregarded the w;irnings and chose to stay home and take their chances.
