Dr. Caesar A.W. Clark
Prince of Preachers
“Little Caesar” was the affectionate nickname many of his ministry colleagues gave him. He stood a little more than 5 feet tall, had a moustache, and wore black thick-rimmed eyeglasses. The only thing small about him was his stature. Everything else related to Dr. Caesar Arthur Walter Clark Sr. (1914-2008) was larger than life: his pulpit eloquence, rich imagination, extraordinary longevity, homiletical musicality, and pastoral wisdom
Pulpit Eloquence: Early on in his tenure at Good Street, Dr. Clark distinguished himself as a “brilliant orator.”8 His skills in crafting poetic language, artful phrasing, and judicious use of rhetorical devices won him respect and renown among laypeople and clergy. Even as late as the 1990s, preachers and journalists referred to him as a “giant in the world of Baptist oratory.”9 Mostly self-taught but widely read, he studied deeply. He was articulate and thoughtful, a wordsmith of the English language.
