Summary

Learn to Preach Expository Sermons with Excellence

Many sermons preached today lack the divine knowledge and spiritual understanding available only through dynamic expository preaching。 In Preaching: How to Preach Biblically, John MacArthur’s well-known passion for the Bible combines with the expertise of faculty members at The Master's Seminary to inspire and equip preachers in effective biblical preaching。

Preaching: How to Preach Biblically flows from biblical foundations for expository preaching through a detailed process of developing expositions and creating sermons to the actual delivery of expository messages, connecting what pastors learn in seminary with the sermons preached in a local church。 This volume shows how to progress purposefully from one phase to the next in preparing to minister to God's people through preaching。

This book answers these questions and more:


What is expository, biblical preaching?
What are the theological and historical foundations for insisting on expository preaching?
What are the steps involved in preparation for and participation in biblical preaching?
What models exist for expository preaching today?
The Master's Seminary faculty, with over thirty years' experience in preaching and seminary training of preachers, contributes a treasury of expertise alongside insights from expositor John MacArthur。 While united on their commitment to exposition, the variety of individual expressions and methodological preferences discussed offers beneficial assistance for any preacher seeking a higher level of expository excellence。

The pastors library Collection is an asset that I can’t help but deeply recommend。 This volume is no exception。 It’s not necessarily a how to preach but more so what is expected when you grow through experience。 It helps to adapt to your own particular style。 It’s from the masters seminary faculty although MacArthur does have a good portion of the chapters。 I highlighted quite And will probably refer to it often

Excelente libro que aborda temas esenciales para estar muy preparados en cuanto a la predicación, me ha sido de mucha bendición, cada tema, cada capitulo ha sido muy interesante y de mucha edificación para mi vida espiritual y para mi ministerio en cuanto a la predicación。

El libro es una mezcla de conceptos variados de predicación。 El problema en general es que hay capítulos muy básicos que hacen pensar que el libro es para pastores sin educación teológica; pero por otro lado te habla de diagramar desde el texto original, cosas que sólo un estudiante de teología con unos tres años entenderá。A pesar de ello, hay elementos a destacar del libro。 Creo que no había leído un libro sobre predicación que le dedicara un capítulo a la oración como este。 Tampoco uno con tan El libro es una mezcla de conceptos variados de predicación。 El problema en general es que hay capítulos muy básicos que hacen pensar que el libro es para pastores sin educación teológica; pero por otro lado te habla de diagramar desde el texto original, cosas que sólo un estudiante de teología con unos tres años entenderá。A pesar de ello, hay elementos a destacar del libro。 Creo que no había leído un libro sobre predicación que le dedicara un capítulo a la oración como este。 Tampoco uno con tantos recordatorios sobre la importancia del carácter del predicador。 Lo podría recomendar como un libro de referencia para pastores con experiencia ministerial y capacitación teológica。 。。。more

This Ought to Be the Magna Carta of Preaching。If there is one book on preaching that every preacher needs to read and apply, it is this one。 MacArthur and the other contributors have produced a comprehensive theological resource which equips, challenges and convicts one to labor tirelessly and pray fervently throughout the entire sermon preparation and delivery process。The book doesn’t merely discuss the mechanics of a sermon, but addresses the godliness of the preacher (character); the ability This Ought to Be the Magna Carta of Preaching。If there is one book on preaching that every preacher needs to read and apply, it is this one。 MacArthur and the other contributors have produced a comprehensive theological resource which equips, challenges and convicts one to labor tirelessly and pray fervently throughout the entire sermon preparation and delivery process。The book doesn’t merely discuss the mechanics of a sermon, but addresses the godliness of the preacher (character); the ability of the preacher (studying and exegetical skills); the skill of the preacher (moving from exegesis to exposition); and the dynamics of the preacher (convicting and convincing proclamation of his exposition)。The focus of the book is not on the preacher but rather of God and His Word (the preacher’s weapon)。 MacArthur’s high view of God and His Word influences every page。 It is sobering to consider that God “the perfect judge will render perfect judgment on the quality, accuracy, zeal, and effort of the preacher。” It is the preacher’s task “to know and proclaim the mind of Christ,” which require diligent study of His Word。 After all, only God can change the sinner, and He does so “by His Spirit through the Word,” therefore the preacher is to “preach the Word。” MacArthur exposes and contrasts the error, danger and utter deception of the “modern approach to ministry,” with those who faithfully study and preach the Word。This book effectively differentiates between expositional preaching and experience-centered, pragmatic, topical preaching。 One way that MacArthur accomplishes this is by providing 10 explanations of what expository preaching is not; and then explains and demonstrates what it is and how to be a faithful expositional preacher。 MacArthur shows how expositional preaching is modeled in Scripture, by men such as Jesus, Philip, Stephen, etc。Every aspect of the sermon is discussed in great detail, such as the title, outline, introduction, conclusion, illustrations, application, the gospel。 The various authors who write a chapter on each component also provide many examples and recommended resources to consult in order to prepare and preach expositional sermons for a lifetime of ministry, without being perceived as repetitive。 He also discusses the differences in studying and effectively preaching through the many different genres of the Bible, such as historical narrative, wisdom, law, poetry, epistolary, didactic, homilies, etc。 And in case the preacher was not convinced, MacArthur provides 15 compelling advantages of expositional preaching, leaving one convinced that there is no other approach to faithful preaching。MacArthur explains the essential tools that must be employed such as, the text—translating and studying from the original Hebrew and Aramaic (OT) and Greek (NT); sound and consistent literal, grammatical, historical hermeneutic seeking to understand authorial intent and significance in relation to systematic theology, biblical theology, church history, philosophy of religion, apologetics, homiletics, counseling, Christian education, administration, missions, evangelism, contemporary society, ethics, etc。 in reliance upon the Spirit’s enablement; and then bridging the gap to the church today and declaring the message to the people。This book also includes many phenomenal quotes for other expositors—men who loved God and His Word and faithful preached it, such as Baxter, Spurgeon, Flavel, Edwards, Luther, Calvin, etc。, whilst at the same time providing us with many treasures through their own writing—MacArthur, Mayhue, Rosscup, Busenitz, Deuel, Dougall, Stitzinger, Thomas, Zemek etc。These men remind preachers of the privilege and magnitude of this glorious calling, leaving one refreshed and motivated to zealously press forward in God’s strength, for the edification and salvation of God’s people and for the praise and glory of His Name。 。。。more

A phenomenal read covering the whole gamut of topics related to preaching。 I would place it somewhere between "beginner" and "intermediate" on the spectrum of intended audience。 Even if you've been preaching for many years, reading this book will reinvigorate and renew your passion for expository preaching。 If I ever have the blessing and privilege of training budding pastor-teachers, this book will certainly be assigned early on in that process。 A phenomenal read covering the whole gamut of topics related to preaching。 I would place it somewhere between "beginner" and "intermediate" on the spectrum of intended audience。 Even if you've been preaching for many years, reading this book will reinvigorate and renew your passion for expository preaching。 If I ever have the blessing and privilege of training budding pastor-teachers, this book will certainly be assigned early on in that process。 。。。more

Sean McGowan

Very helpful。 Recommended reading for anyone in pastoral ministry。

Bradley Velez

If you want to be a preacher this is an excellent book。 It has great advice that will come helpful for preachers, even if they had preached before。

Glyn Williams

Good, though at times I feel as though they are writing as though you already know what they are talking about and how to do it。 Not for the lay preacher, but certainly good for those already schooled in preaching to a certain degree。 Personally I preferred Power in the Pulpit by Vines & Shaddix better。

Byron Chesney

Fantastic book centered around expository preaching。 Great tips and information for pastors。
