More from School

So we did take a couple of days off after class ended. First we enjoyed Louisville, then we stayed with good friends in Indianapolis.

A few more thoughts to share from my class:
A simple definition –

Expository preaching is that type of preaching that seeks to bring out of the text what is there. The preacher’s aim is to show his hearers what the text is saying to them about God and about themselves.

Some comforting advice on sermon length –

“Where weariness or exhaustion comes upon your people, there is little chance of your doing them more good on that occasion.”

The threefold aim of preaching –

Humble the sinner

Exalt the Savior

Promote holiness
