Preaching Foundations – How to Create and Structure a Sermon

Event Description

No one wants a boring sermon. In this session we will address issues of preparation, structure, purpose, language and listening, so that in preaching the passage of scripture comes alive and, through the Holy Spirit, inspires and builds up the congregation. Open to anyone who gives a talk or sermon and would like to refresh their practice. Particularly suitable for those who have taken BCM Worship and lay folk asked to preach occasionally.
