Given the stiff competition in today's attention economy, many pastors feel pressured to make their sermons strikingly original. But Austin Carty, a longtime pastor and award-winning writer, has a different perspective: nothing we do or say is ever truly new. The power of a sermon is found not in novelty, but in the mandate it gives preachers to collect their thoughts every week and put them down in a succinct, coherent fashion.

Jackman offers listeners the basic principles of biblical exposition that will equip them to faithfully study, prepare, and deliver sermons and Bible talks.

Kim Clement has had many critics over the years, but the movers and shakers in the world are sitting up and taking notice of this out-of-the-box prophet. In his new book, Kim shares some of the amazing stories of accurate prophecies that God has been giving him.

His passion expressed here is to make it clear that anyone can hear and be the voice of God in the earth.

Andy and Kara were anxious—anxious about their teenaged children approaching adulthood in a tumultuous world. Anxious, too, about their ministries; after all, as America's pews empty, the church depends on its leaders to save it. If only they could control the circumstances faced by those who depended on them, they could ensure their success. But maybe the solution isn't paving the way for our kids or our congregations. Maybe it's hiking the long road alongside them.

Algunos de nosotros parecen haber dejado la resurrección en un lugar muy lejano -quizás para algunos, inexistente- en nuestra predicación. Cuando esto es así, no está en armonía con la proclamación bíblica del Evangelio. Les insto a que se sienten con su Biblia y lean detenidamente y en oración el libro de los Hechos. Allí encontramos una predicación genuina y llena del Espíritu Santo de las buenas nuevas de Jesucristo.

Have you ever considered what sermon would be the last one you will hear? It’s not a matter of if you will hear it, but when.

Charles Spurgeon, the Prince of Preachers, pastored the Metropolitan Tabernacle for 38 years, and spent many of those years in a state of powerful revival. Multitudes came from all over the world to hear him speak. His average Sunday morning services hosted up to six thousand people listening intently to the Word of the Lord. While it is fairly common today to see churches of thousands, in some places there seems to be one on every street corner, back in Spurgeon’s day, it was nothing short of miraculous.

Historic denominations are dying. Church memberships and baptisms plummet with every passing year. Pastors and church leaders are concerned about their churches plateauing. Why? One of the major reasons is because congregations aren't being publicly called to faith in Christ. A growing number of evangelical pastors have opted for non-confrontational approaches to calling people to faith in Jesus. Some seminaries have removed evangelism classes from their curriculum and pastors aren't being taught how to give an effective, God honoring public invitation, void of manipulation.

Being a pastor is a complex and demanding role, especially for someone leading alone.

The challenges are many, including loneliness, isolation, self-doubt, overwhelm, feelings of inadequacy, and a constant search for additional resources and volunteers. Where does a solo pastor turn for help and encouragement?

To attain simplicity in preaching is of the utmost importance to every minister who wishes to be useful to souls. Unless you are simple in your sermons, you will never be understood, and unless you are understood, you cannot do good to those who hear you. Of course, the first objective of a minister should be to preach the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth as it is in Jesus. But the next thing he ought to aim at is for his sermon to be understood, and it will not be understood by most of his congregation if it is not simple.

In order to understand, appreciate, and faithfully preach the word of God, pastors must discern the literary nature of the Bible. Instead of just acknowledging the various genres of Scripture, pastors and teachers should allow these genres to influence how the text is approached and communicated. In The Beauty and Power of Biblical Exposition, they will learn how to both read and preach the Bible as a literary anthology.
