Want of the tinker's power

"I would willingly exchange my learning for the tinker's power of touching men's hearts." (John Owen, to King Charles, on why he went to hear John Bunyan, an uneducated 'tinker', preach.)
O how I resonate with Owen - and I don't even have any great learning to renounce in exchange for that power!
