Friends reminded me of this from The Doctor:
One eccentric preacher's headings:
(1) A good trait in a bad character - Balaam arose early
(2) The antiquity of saddlery - he saddled his ass
(3) A few remarks concerning the Woman of Samaria.
D. Martyn Lloyd-Jones on The Shape of the Sermon in Preaching & Preachers, p208, warning against always having 3 points and adding in extraneous elements.
I've not looked at the book in ages but it has quite a lot of annotations. I obviously found it stimulating at Christmas 1996!
