Preaching and Writing (Season 1, Episode 7)

Writing is a valuable endeavor for gospel preachers as it is another way in which the message of the gospel can be spread. But many preachers seem to neglect this practice. So in this episode, we consider the advantages, as well as the disadvantages, of writing as a means of teaching the word of God. My hope is that more preachers would seriously consider writing as part of their work of preaching.

Advantages of writing discussed in this episode:

Words can sometimes be better expressed through writing.
Writings can be spread around more easily.
Writings are a lasting resource.

Disadvantages of writing discussed in this episode:

Writing takes time and effort.
Writing opens you up to greater scrutiny.
Writing gives you a more permanent record.

Speak Your Mind

What does “propitiation” mean? How is “justification” connected to salvation? What does “sanctification” look like in our day-to-day lives? The Bible uses some powerful words to describe God’s plan to save mankind. However, these words are not always easy to understand, especially when they are not part of our everyday vocabulary. This book explores key Bible terms that unlock the message of the gospel.

Big Words in the Bible examines five important words – Propitiation, Reconciliation, Sanctification, Justification, and Resurrection – using plain language to see how the Scriptures describe these concepts and how the apostle Paul employs them in his letter to the Romans. This book also contains an appendix with eleven additional articles to explore these topics further.

Whether you are new to the Bible and want to grow in your understanding or want a simple way to explain these core gospel doctrines to others, this book will be helpful. With a focus on the Scriptures, Big Words in the Bible helps break down these fundamental topics to shed light on the life-changing message of the gospel and the salvation found in it.
