In Roman-catholic churches the altar en the offer is the most important element. Charles Spurgeon was England's best-known and most-loved preacher for most of the second half of the nineteenth century. There are different styles or types of preaching. The most important styles are:
- topical preaching - concerned with a particular subject of current concern;
- exhortatory preaching - concerned with changing or affirming the behaviour of the congregation in a particular way;
- biographical preaching - tracing the story of a particular biblical character through a number of parts of the bible;
- evangelistic preaching - seeking to convert the congregation or bring them back to their previous faith;
- charismatic preaching - seeking to inspire the congregation to an immediate spiritual experience.
