Speak to the mind - Have people realise that they CAN be saved. That salvation makes sense.
Speak to the will - Have the listener WANT salvation. That the gospel is something that requires a response.
Speak to the emotion - Have the audience understand the URGENCY to be saved. That they need to be put right with God immediately.
If the preacher speaks to these three points, then they go a long way in giving a good sermon.

Hey Graham, what was the book you were reading? I was just given 'Christ Centered Preaching' as a gift, but am yet to read it.
The book is called Gutenburg to Google: The 20 Indisputable Laws of Communication by James O. Davis.
