How to Write a Good Sermon: Your Guide to Transformative Preaching
God planted the desire in your heart to share the gospel faithfully and effectively—to the ends of the earth.
But…how?
The desire to preach well doesn't get us far without a roadmap—some instruction, guidance, teaching, or coaching—because without one, we repeat the same mistakes over and over.
And we don’t grasp the skills that can take us to the next level of proficiency.
I created this e-book to get you out of that rut. It’s a collection of the most popular blog posts I've written about the craft of preaching.
It's filled with practical advice you can apply right away about some of the most common questions preachers face, like:
What's the most important thing a preacher needs to do to improve? (The answer is probably not what you think.)
You want to preach without notes, but you're scared to go without a manuscript. What's a simple process to keep you and your message on track?
You want parishioners to be engaged, to remember what they've heard long after worship has ended: how do you keep parishioners listening instead of checking their phones?
Telling a story is one of the most powerful things a preacher can do. After all, stories worked pretty well for Jesus! But you're not a trained writer, so how can you hope to craft stories filled with rich detail that make your point—and don't overstay their welcome by going on too long?
