Why Do Pastors Shout Their Sermons?

I’ve noticed pastors often raise their voices when preaching, even with powerful amplifiers and large speakers inside and outside the church. Are they shouting to demonstrate power and authority? Or is it meant to attract passersby rather than serve the congregation inside? When sermons rely on chants like “fire, fire, fire” without solid Bible references, it can feel more like a public nuisance than genuine teaching. This shouting style makes me question if the real audience is the people outside—and whether it underestimates those who attend.
