Preaching with variety

Thursday, 16 February 2012

I committed 2 mornings this week to attend a preaching conference organizer by SBC. The speaker was Dr Jeffrey Arthurs from Gordon-Conwell, the theme was “Preaching with Variety” (the title of his book).

He touched on the following topics:

  • Foundations of expository preaching
  • The Bible as Literature and Rhetoric
  • Preaching the Psalms
  • Preaching the Parables

Here are some points I gleaned.

The communication of a biblical concept, derived from … historical, grammatical, and literary study of a passage in its context, which the Holy Spirit first applies to the personality and experience of the preacher, then through the preacher applies to the hearers. ~ Haddon Robinson

Comparing Bible softwares

Friday, 20 January 2012

Recently, Peter Mead posted the article ‘Bible Software and Sermon Prep‘ on his blog, comparing Logos, BibleWorks and Accordance. Here were my comments.

As what you mentioned and rightly pointed out, the strength and main draw is the commentaries and resources for Logos, and the exegetical, linguistic tools for BibleWorks. I’ve been in full-time ministry for about 10 years, and spent 3 years in seminary.

Whilst in seminary, doing an M.Div in pastoral ministries, we mainly used BibleWorks, especially for my Greek and Hebrew language and exegesis modules, also a little for Homiletics for preparation. It’s very technical, and I would say, it would be very helpful if you already have a working knowledge or skills in working with the original languages. Parsing, inflections, mood, person, exegetical structure, those who know it understand what I mean.
