		<description><![CDATA[I suppose the answer for all of us should be, &quot;it depends.&quot;  It depends who I&#039;m preaching to, what they&#039;re used to, what the message needs, what culture the listeners are in, etc.  Since I am not preaching every week in the same venue I try to preach according to local convention (more or less).  In the last two months I&#039;ve preached sermons from under 10 minutes, to almost an hour.  If I were visiting some countries, they&#039;d want longer.  Anyway, as far as I&#039;m concerned, since texts are different, preaching contexts are different, and occasions are different, so are sermon lengths.  Sorry that wasn&#039;t a one line answer!]]></description>
