Today, in our 21st century, his sermons are still being read. This indicates that he left us a remarkable body of work. He tackled the problem of spiritual dearth in a time of emerging humanistic rationalism. Hofacker's preaching reflected his core belief: Christ only. His sermons also reflect the preacher himself.
