Word count of sermon

[Notthemama1984]

For those who write out their sermons, approx what is the word count you are aiming for and how long of a sermon would that be?

 

[Guido's Brother]

I don't really aim for a specific word count, but I'm usually in the range of 3-4,000 words. I don't think I've ever gone over 4,000. On average my sermons run about 25-30 minutes.

Good to know. I am only at the two grand mark. I may still be on the short side.

I shoot for 2,000, but I have so much more come to me while I'm preaching that I typically preach for a half hour.
