"Therefore, since brevity is the soul of wit, And tediousness the limbs and outward flourishes, I will be brief."~William Shakespeare, Hamlet
Although I applaud Charlie for attempting to create a new holiday tradition with the Feast of the Ascension, I don't think people will line up if the sermon runs too long.
During her recent WRHI interview, Mary Cat mentioned that, in seminary, they were taught to restrict the sermon to 8-11 minutes for maximum effect. Presumably, Charlie was absent that day.
