The "Forgotten" Testament?

The Old Testament has always been somewhat of a bugaboo for preachers. How should we preach it? What should we preach? How much time should we give to it? I love the Old Testament (remember, it is part of God's inspired and authoritative Word!). It's always been my contention that congregations need a balanced diet of both testaments. How it breaks down (50-50, 60-40, 75-25) I'm not really sure.

Ray Pritchard has some thoughts and a question here on why preachers don't do much with the Old Testament.
