Came across this insightful quote the other day in preparing for Ps 14, I think. Good reminder whenever you teach something...
To answer sceptical cavillings (regarding scripture) will be labour lost until grace enters to make the mind willing to believe; fools can raise more objections in an hour than wise men can answer in seven years, indeed it is their mirth to set stools for wise men to stumble over. Let the preacher aim at the heart, and preach the all-conquering love of Jesus, and he will by God's grace win more doubters to the faith of the gospel than any hundred of the best reasoners who only direct their arguments to the head. ---Spurgeon
