"The mature worshiper is easily edified." When hearing lackluster (even if biblical) preaching, immature worshipers will typically not listen to the message because they wish the messenger was more exciting. Conversely, mature worshipers eagerly receive the truth as it is proclaimed, even if it sounds like the preacher is reading a phone book.

I "get" this quote, but at the same time (and maybe I'm not mature enough), dull preaching makes me wonder how such glorious truths can be treated that way. After all, it is "good" news, and it should be treated that way.
