I thought I'd throw in some preaching from the Emerald Isle this week. It's just an audio clip, but Alistair Begg doesn't need bells and whistles to hit a nail on its head.
Skip ahead to the third minute if you like. Good preaching: what springs to mind? A booming voice from a big pulpit, right? Someone quoting Scripture while holding up a Bible with one hand and pointing at the Bible with their other hand. Or maybe they're pointing at the pews in front of them.
But Good Preaching is really just one thing: relaying the Gospel with conviction. "Preaching", it seems, is as much the job of those in the pews as it is the guy on the stage. Pastor Dan does a fine job on Sunay mornings, but what good is it if we don't do anything with that teaching Monday through Saturday? Not much good at all.
So go ahead: preach something this week.
