How to Preach the Gospel [The Everyday Pastor - Ep. 53]

Paglalarawan

How do pastors faithfully preach the gospel in every sermon without forcing Jesus into passages where he doesn’t belong? Matt Smethurst and Ligon Duncan tackle one of the most important questions in pastoral ministry: How do you preach Christ from all of Scripture? They discuss preaching Jesus from the Old Testament, avoiding moralistic preaching, applying the gospel faithfully, and helping sermons move beyond information into transformation. Ligon shares lessons learned from Mark Dever about making sure every sermon clearly proclaims Christ, while Matt explains why sermons that would still work if Jesus were “still in the grave” aren’t truly Christian sermons. They explore how pastors can preach the gospel naturally from Genesis to Revelation without flattening the Bible’s storyline. 🔗 MENTIONED ▫ Sermon Application Grid by IX Marks - https://anglicanexpositor.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/application-grid.pdf ▫ CSB Connecting Scripture New Testament by Holman - https://www.amazon.com/LeatherTouch-Single-Column-Cross-Reference-Color-Coded-Introductions/dp/B0DT8L46ZQ?tag=thegospcoal-20 ▫ Preaching Christ in Every Sermon with Bryan Chapell [The Everyday Pastor - Ep. 5] - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R9PNivPEkT8 ▫ The Whole Christ by Sinclair Ferguson - https://www.amazon.com/Whole-Christ-Antinomianism-Assurance_Why-Controversy/dp/1433548003?tag=thegospcoal-20 If you're ready to go deeper, Southern Seminary's PhD program is where that begins.
