religious sermons
Clergy's spiritual speeches
Religious sermons are speeches delivered during worship services, typically by clergy, expounding on scripture or moral teaching.
The phrase is slightly redundant—sermons are by definition religious addresses—but appears when distinguishing from secular speeches that adopt the sermon's exhortatory style: His commencement address sounded more like a religious sermon than career advice.
