Where Do Sermons Come From?
2008-05-21 00:32:00 A sermon is an interesting thing. It’s a speech of course, but it’s always a persuasive speech. In Ephesians 4:16 the Bible calls the church a body of people who each have different gifts that work together. My gift is my mouth. As the pastor of a young, small church plant I do a lot of things, from counseling, to pre-marital sessions, to administration, to leadership development and oversight, but most importantly I preach. This entry is devoted to sharing with you all how I prepare for a sermon. (more…)
