Prof Burer,
I hope that some of you teaching at DTS can help young preachers learn to preach from the Gospels and not just Paul. In my experience, some DTS grads preach mainly from Paul and avoid the Gospels due to certain difficulties in applying the material to the church (I'm guessing). We recently had a sermon series on First Peter and found that people knew nothing about that book compared to more frequently visited works such as Romans and 1 Corinthians.
May your efforts to get preaching to be more broadly based bear much fruit!
