Synopsis

Explore how expository preaching centers on Christ, the cross, and the Holy Spirit’s guiding power to reach hearts and minds.

In this thoughtful guide, the author urges ministers to anchor their preaching in the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ. It emphasizes the cruciform message as the core of effective ministry and the need to present the old story in fresh, living terms. The text also discusses how preaching works alongside God’s Spirit, forming a true partnership that strengthens both the preacher and the listener.

Readers will discover how Scripture should shape every sermon plan—from choosing a text to its full context and its relation to the wider biblical message. The author uses examples from biblical accounts to show how Jesus himself read, interpreted, and applied Scripture, and why a careful, contextual approach matters for clear, truthful exposition. The book also reflects on practical challenges—temptation, doubt, and the responsibility to care for others—calling readers to a ministry marked by humility, courage, and love.

  • Guidance on shaping sermons that faithfully reveal Christ and His redemptive work.
  • Principles for reading and applying Scripture with depth and integrity.
  • Insights on the pastor’s partnership with the Holy Spirit in preaching and mission.
  • Practical cautions about temptation, moral influence, and pastoral care.

Ideal for readers of religious publishing and anyone seeking a clear, actionable approach to preaching that centers on the gospel and daily spiritual leadership.

Présentation de l'éditeur

Introductory Note A FAMOUS teacher of Homiletics in an American school used to tell his students a generation ago that the one kind of preaching which always wore was the Expository. The experience of his stu dents, now honored and wise leaders of their own generations, has many times confirmed thig. It is not pulpit eloquence no matter how brilliant, nor topical preaching no matter how timely, wise, varied, or epigrammatic, which best resists the wear and tear of time in a long pastorate with its steady and unceasing demand for sermons, week in, week out, which feed and nourish and inspire the flock. No other style of preaching can so completely guarantee immunity from an indulgence in special crochets and fads.
